If you want
We could escape this drudgery
Abandon this provincial town
And our menial jobs
Slaving away aimlessly
For payday
If you want
We could hold hands,
Despite what our friends say
Trying to tell us
What's wrong or right
We could decide for ourselves
From now
If you want
We could soar like eagles
Explore this vast world of possibilty
I want to kiss you under a desert night sky
Seeing the endless galaxy
If you want
We could live a rich life
With little money
We could read books, and dance in torrential storms,
Snuggle under piles of blankets
Watch Disney movies all day long
Live on a bus
Visit all the national parks,
And spread our love and kindness
If you want
We could be wild and free
Breaking free from conformity
If you want
It could just be you and me
Travelling this endless earth
In each other's company.
