Lyrics Sharon Van Etten

Sharon Van Etten

Don't Do It

Said you need to do it 'cause you can't feel it tonight

Well you can if you want to

Want to take you outside, want to show you the sky

To remind you why you shouldn't.

Do your worst if you can, do your worst if you can do it.

You can if you want. You can take it -- yeah, you want to run.

Said you wanted to then kissed the gun.

You can if you want to do it.

And you want to do it, and you want to do it

If you want to do it, you are going to do it,

even if I don't want you to.

Say it outright that you don't want to see me tonight

and you won't if you don't want to

Hide it from me if you must hide it from me

if you don't trust anything I say right to you

And you want to do it, if you want to do it

You will if you want to

And you want to do it, if you want to do it,

You will if you want to.

And you want to do it, and you want to do it,

if you want to do it, you are going to do it,

even if I don't want you to.

I was inside painting your name on the window

I was somewhere in sight.

And I wanted to find out why you're hiding

I was tired of the fight.

Look me in the eyes say you can't do it,

look me in the eyes say you can't do it,

but you will if you want to.

Look me in the eyes say you can't do it,

look me in the eyes say you can't do it,

but you will if you want to.

And you want to do it, and you want to do it,

If you want to do it, you are going to do it,

even if I don't want you to.

Shake it down. So much better.

Tell me that you don't know what you do.

And you want to do it, if you want to do it

You will if you want to.

And you want to do it, if you want to do it

You will if you want to.

And you want to do it, if you want to do it

You will if you want to.

I wish I could make you right.
