Lyrics - If I Wanted To by Etheridge Melissa

If
I wanted to
I could do anything right
I could dance with the devil on a
Saturday night
If
I wanted to
I could turn matches to gold
I could smoke drink swear and
I would nevergrow old
I wouldn't have to be in love with you
If
I only wanted to
If
I only wanted to
If
I wanted to
I could run fast as a train
Be as sharp as a needle that's twisting your brain
If
I wanted to
I could turn mountains to sand
Have political leaders in the palm of my hand
I wouldn't have to be in love with you
If
I only wanted to
If
I only wanted to
I could leave tonight
And
I would be all right
Stop holding on
If
I wanted to
If
I only wanted to
If
I wanted to
I could be as patient as death
Fix this hole in my heart leaking into my flesh
If
I wanted to
I could turn sparks into ice
There'd never be another woman who could make youthink twice
I wouldn't have to be in love with you
If
I only wanted to
If
I only wanted to
