You can do whatever you want to do
Wherever you want to go it's up to you
And wouldn't it be fine
Following your heart, playing your own part

You and me out on a farm, let the sun be our alarm
Kickin' off your shoes, doin' what we choose
And wouldn't it be fine
Knowing that your mine anytime you want to be

But I don't want to own you
I just want to hold you
I don't want to need you
I just like to see you smile and stay for awhile

And if the times get rough, being free might be enough
To see us through the storm and keep our feelings warm
And wouldn't it be fine
Looking back and knowing that we helped each other find

You can do whatever you want to do
Wherever you want to go it's up to you
And wouldn't it be fine
Following your heart knowing from the start
It's up to you
It's up to you
It's up to you
