Gerry Rafferty - Sweet Surrender Lyrics
Got to leave, got to go downtownGot to see the man who won't beat aroundHe understands what we've got to doAnd everything he says rings true.Walking in this wilderness, wearing out my shoesStaring at the living dead, peddling my bluesI might be in heaven or I might be in hellI don't know which is which, sometimes you just can't tell.Sweet surrenderSweet surrenderI wake up every morning, I lie down every nightAs long as I believe in love, I know it's gonna be alright.I try to keep it simple, take it one day at a timeWhen I'm losing my direction, well that ain't no crimeSweet surrenderSweet surrenderBut everytime we drift away into the magic of the nightYou hold me close and I hear you saySweet surrender (surrender)Living in the electronic worldLiving in the molecular worldLiving in the electronic worldLiving in the molecular worldCheck into hotels, checking out the streetAir-conditioned Cadillacs when I can't stand the heatI just hit another road-block and I'm runnin' out of gasI've got this white line fever, but I know that it won't last.Sweet surrenderSweet surrenderBut everytime we drift away into the magic of the nightYou hold me close and I hear you saySweet surrender (surrender)Got to leave, got to go downtownGot to see the man who won't beat aroundHe understands what we've got to doAnd everything he says rings true.Sweet sweet, sweet surrenderSweet sweet, sweet surrenderSweet sweet, sweet surrenderSweet sweet, sweet surrender[Fade](sweet sweet)Living in the electronic worldLiving in the molecular world
