(Written By Cohen, Performed In "Night Magic")
2
(Angels) You can't do this
3
You must do what
4
We must do what must be done
5
(Judy) I hear my baby calling
6
He is asking to be born
7
I see the curtains parting
8
That our kisses have outworn...
9
(Angels) Kisses all outworn...
10
(Judy) I'll raise a tent of shelter
11
Now though every thread is torn
12
(Angels) Every thread is torn...
13
(Judy) I take my life from realms of light
14
And hang it on a thorn
15
(Angels) Hanging on a thorn...
16
(Judy) I hear the children calling
17
Asking to be born
18
I see the curtains parting
19
And my life upon a thorn
20
The stars have lost their fire
21
And the moon has lost her voice
22
And I'm coming back to find you
23
I have made the human choice.
24
(Angels) You've made your choice
25
The world you choose
26
Garlands of planets and starlight
27
Now you lose
28
(Judy) He's the only one who knows me
29
He's the riddle of my life
30
And they'll never tell the story
31
Of the husband and the wife
32
(Angels) The world she chooses, she loses...
33
(Judy) He's the stone that broke my heart
34
The foundation of my home --
35
(Angels) This we must do!
36
(Judy) He's the sweetness of the sweetness
37
Of the sweetness honeycomb
38
(Angels) We must do what we must do!
39
(Judy) And he's welcome to his glory
40
And he's buried in my life
41
And they'll never tell the story
42
Of the husband and the wife
43
(Angels) She takes her life from realms of light
44
(Valkyries) She hangs it on a thorn
45
(Angels) She disobeys the law
46
(Valkyries) The law is broken
47
You must get them
48
(Angels) Get him.
49
(Valkyries) Get them!

Messenger
53
Do what must be done
54
And our will be done
55
Will be done
