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   Smoke drink swear and I would never grow 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   Oh, oh, oh   Oh, oh, oh      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 you think twice      I wouldn't have to be in love with you   If I only wanted to   Hey, if I only wanted to      Hey, if I only wanted to   Hey, if I only wanted to      Oh, oh, oh   Oh, oh, oh   Oh, oh, oh      Oh hey if I wanted to   Hey hey hey if I wanted to   Hey hey hey if I wanted to      If I wanted to   Oh, oh, oh
