Tim Buckley - Sweet Surrender lyrics
[Tim Buckley - Sweet Surrender lyrics]
Why I cheated on you
Well, I had to be a hunter again
This little man had to try to
Make love feel new again
'Cause there's just a few things honey
I'm not old enough to do for you
And they're the things mama
You just never care to show me
So this flimflam lover boy
Found him a flamingo
And his flamingo showed him how to tango
And when they tangoed it'd send
Their hearts a flutter
Tease him til he stuttered young and tender
Seemed to surrender in so sweet surrender
In sweet surrender
Ah, sweet surrender to love
But, now you're gonna go out
And get yourself a reputation
But, I'm gonna have to show
You where to start
And then you're gonna bring
Back your little reputation
And prove to me what I could not prove to you
Cause I was just too young at heart
Just too cold, Honey just too hard to care
Just too hard, right too surrender
Surrender to love sweet Surrender
Surrender to love if we could just Surrender
Love would heal the mess we made
So give it up, Mamma
It a'int gonna be no good
Going round and around
You'l hurt me, then i'll hurt you again
All that's left to do is give it, ahhh
Give it up and Surrender sweet Surrender
Sweet Surrender surrender your love
Surrender oh, Surrender
Surrender that love
Sweet, sweet, sweet Surrender, Mama to love
To love to love
