Do What You Have To Do
Sarah McLachlan
What ravages of spirit
Conjured this temptuous rage
Created you a monster
Broken by the rule of love
And fate has led you through it
You do what you have to do
Oh, fate has led you through it
You do what you have to do
But I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go
Every moment marked
With aberrations of your soul
I'm ever swiftly moving
Trying to escape this desire
The yearning to be near
I do what I have to do
Oh, the yearning to be near
I do what I have to do
But I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go
That I don't know how to let you go
Glowing ember, burning hot
Burning slow
And deep within, I'm shaken by the violence
Of existing for only you
I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
Oh, I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
But I have the sense to recognize
That I don't know how to let you go
Don't know how to let you go
Don't know how to let you go
That I don't know how to let you go
