I Do (String Version)

This rain is not the cleansing kind

It drags you down and clouds your mind

And oh, you know, it chills me to the bone

Hold your tongue and hold my hand

I can only pray you’ll understand

Without you I can only be alone

But I cannot repair this on my own

I shake us, I ache us

I break us in two

But I love you, I love you

I love you, I do

We have a certain time on Earth

And I’ve been told it’s all a learning curve

I’ve learned not being with you is wasting time

But I’ll do what’s right, and let you go

‘Cause I can see it only hurts your soul

I just wanna hold you in my arms

I’m afraid that if I touch you’d turn to dust

I shake us, I ache us

I break us in two

But I love you, I love you

I love you, I do

Oh, the river flows away from me

I can’t hold on, she must be free

And I’ll be right here

Oh, I’ll be right here

I shake us, I ache us

I break us in two

But I love you, I love you

I love you, I do

I love you, I do
