The Oak Ridge Boys - Where Can I Surrender lyrics

Ever one to run away, ever one to leave
Never one to hang around, never one to grieve
If love turned into labour
I would just resign
Working through the hard times
Never crossed my mind

I'm guilty of entering and
Breaking hearts so dear
I'm guilty of unlawful flight
And failing to appear
I've committed all the crimes of love
Every felony
Now I have but one defence, to plead insanity

O where can I surrender
I'm tired of being free
I want love to come and make
A prisoner out of me
I'm a big offender, o love come capture me
Lock me in your velvet cell


And throw away the key

Events have come full circle now
I spend my nights alone
Where love was once so full and free
Love has up and gone
If God should just see fit to
Send sweet love my way again
I'd die before I'd run away and
Be like I have been

Oh where can I surrender
I'm tired of being free
I want love to come and make
A prisoner out of me
I'm a big offender, o love come capture me
Lock me in your velvet cell
And throw away the key
Lock me in your velvet cell
And throw away the key
