[FAY]
Anyone can whistle
That's what they say—
Easy
Anyone can whistle
Any old day—

It's all so simple
Relax, let go, let fly
So someone tell me why
Can't I?
I can dance a tango
I can read Greek—
Easy
I can slay a dragon
Any old week—
Easy
What's hard is simple
What's natural comes hard
Maybe you could show me
How to let go

I can dance a tango
I can read Greek—
Easy
I can slay a dragon
Any old week—
Easy
What's hard is simple
What's natural comes hard
Maybe you could show me
How to let go
Lower my guard
Learn to be free
Maybe if you whistle
Whistle for me
