Lyrics:
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 me if you want to run,
Said you wanted to then kissed the gun,
You can 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,

Say you're alright,
'Cause 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 inside,
And I wanted to find out why you hurt,
And I was terrified,

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 me down,
Tell me its 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.

Her voice is perfection and I absolutely love the dreamy angelic chorus in the background! Why haven't more people watched/commented?!

[Jazzy459]

@TisAlicia I have no idea! But hopefully soon this song will get the recognition is deserves

[rockomundo]

Great song.

[mehidalgo18]

haaa! I came here looking for a very really popular and mainstream song...that basically I think it says: just do it tonight...do it tonight...or some crap like that. her name came up, and this may sound absurd but her name sounds like those european techno djs, so i thought this would be the song.gladly I was wrong. she sounds good, sooo my type.

[islandsq]

Ohhh..ok! I finally figured out who Sharon reminds me of after listening to 15 different songs of hers! After i listened to this one twice, I got it---Aimee Mann!! Yessss---sooo very similar in her tone and vibration vocally! I've always like A. M.'s music so it's great to hear Sharon's too---both sultry, relaxing, deep water vocals~~great art by both ladies.:)

[zoidsvstherichies]

she was so outstanding at sasquatch, IF ANY OF YOU GET TO SEE HER GET THOSE TICKETS, SHE IS SOO WORTH IT. trust me.

[MBArkestra]

Does anyone know the tabs for this? I'm sure it's very simple, but my guitar skills are shite. Thanks.

So powerful, still gives me chills after 20+ listens. To me an uplifting track. Added as no 2 on my top 100 songs of 2010, over at my blog moviesandsongs365
