Sarah McLachlan - Do What You Have To Do Lyrics

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

  "you ARE really leaving"....and No, I don't know how to let you go, you WILL be missed!! We love you!

  For my sister, Mandi Panda Weaverling...as I realize only now that you really leaving, sadly again. I will miss you. This used to be our song to sing...remember?
