Serina Jung: Music & Lyrics

If I Want To

(Serina Jung)
Serina S. Jung

I remember, in conversation, hearing someone tell someone else how they were feeling about something and the other person replied, "you shouldn't feel that way....". The truth is that we all feel what we feel even if we don't want to feel a certain way. So this song idea was inspired by that conversation I overheard. I still sometimes chastise myself for feeling things I wish I wouldn't feel but c'est la vie, as they say in French.

don't tell me what to do

I'm gonna love you if I want to

don't tell me how to feel

when it concerns you

no need to explain what I've come to know

a heartbeat too late

I don't need to be told what to do

I'm gonna love you if I want to

 

don't tell me what to say

I'm gonna love you anyway

don't tell me how to be

'cuz in the end I"ll be okay

 

come a little closer

come, dance with me this last time

don't say a word, not another word

 

don't tell me what to say

I'm gonna love you anyway

don't tell me what to do

I'm gonna love you if I want to
