Lyrics
Surrender
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to dance the night away
You always look so clean and tidy anyway
Underneath you're not well
What if I was sick like you?
Underneath it all you're cheap
What if i was cheap like you?
There go the men who cannot see beyond your skin
Hot beneath your collar every time you look at him
What's it like to really surrender?
What's it like to really give in?
It's not a crime to want to leave the house tonight
I know a place that can console you in your plight
Underneath you're not well
What if I was sick like you?
You had to take some days off ill
What if I was weak like you?
You used to come around here almost all the time
No reservations, just assuming you were mine
What's it like to really surrender?
What's it like to really give in?
What's it like to really surrender?
What's it like to give everything?
Test your blood with suspicion
They harbour thoughts of extradition
Shouldn't happen to a man in your position
Test your blood with suspicion
What's it like to really surrender?
What's it like to really give in?
What's it like to really surrender?
What's it like to give everything?
