I 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.
Life's like a lazy river as you slowly drift downstream
I find myself reminded just what you mean to me
The past will never leave me the future's already here
I imagine there's no escaping my deep-seated fear
I always thought you were my only friend
When I told you that I loved you did you understand
Don't wanna count on fishes in the sea
But at the time I saw the sign of how you wanted things to be
I surrender with no regret
Just remember life's not over yet
I feel you when I'm dreaming
So soft against my skin
There's no need to feel so guilty
There's no element of sin
As you reach your own conclusion
I began to lose control
Is the method in my madness
Like the sadness in my soul
I always thought you were my only friend
When I told you that I loved you did you understand
Don't wanna count on fishes in the sea
But at the time I saw the sign of how you wanted things to be
I surrender with no regret
Just remember life's not over yet
I always thought you were my only friend
When I told you that I loved you did you understand
Don't wanna count on fishes in the sea
But at the time I saw the sign of how you wanted things to be
And though you're gone I carry on though all that's left's the memory
I surrender with no regret
Just remember life's not over yet
