Melissa Etheridge - Brave And Crazy lyrics

If I could have my way

I'd be sleeping in the alley

On a couch with a friend and a bottle of gin

If I could have my way

I'd be runnin' with the circus

I would be taming all the lions

There'd be no denying I was brave and crazy

If I could have my way

I wouldn't be dreaming, scheming, screaming

Oooh, what am I gonna do

About you

I wishes were horses

This beggar would ride

I'd have my cake and eat it

With a little on the side

I'd never want for money

I'd never want for friends

I wouldn't have to make excuses for the shape that I'm in

Shaking and crazy

Before I saw your eyes

I was in control of my soul on the whole

Oooh, what am I gonna do

About you

Cool as a rule

I wouldn't play nobody's fool

But I keep on talking

Made in the shade

I had a perfect cue to fade

But I keep on walking

If I could have my way

I'd check out right now

I'd say out to lunch honey thanks a bunch

It wouldn't work out anyhow

But this desire's too much

It's rented out my brain

It's showing previews of your body

Driving me insane

And that's crazy

So all that I can do

Is to beg, plead, won't you tell me please

What am I gonna do

About you
