Got to leave, got to go downtown
|
Got to see the man who won't beat around
|
He understands what we've got to do
|
And everything he says rings true.
|
|
Walking in this wilderness, wearing out my shoes
|
Staring at the living dead, peddling my blues
|
I might be in heaven or I might be in hell
|
I don't know which is which, sometimes you just can't tell.
|
|
Sweet surrender
|
Sweet surrender
|
|
I wake up every morning, I lie down every night
|
As 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 time
|
When I'm losing my direction, well that ain't no crime
|
|
Sweet surrender
|
Sweet surrender
|
|
But everytime we drift away into the magic of the night
|
You hold me close and I hear you say
|
Sweet surrender (surrender)
|
|
Living in the electronic world
|
Living in the molecular world
|
Living in the electronic world
|
Living in the molecular world
|
|
Check into hotels, checking out the street
|
Air-conditioned Cadillacs when I can't stand the heat
|
I just hit another road-block and I'm runnin' out of gas
|
I've got this white line fever, but I know that it won't last.
|
|
Sweet surrender
|
Sweet surrender
|
|
But everytime we drift away into the magic of the night
|
You hold me close and I hear you say
|
Sweet surrender (surrender)
|
|
Got to leave, got to go downtown
|
Got to see the man who won't beat around
|
He understands what we've got to do
|
And everything he says rings true.
|
|
Sweet sweet, sweet surrender
|
Sweet sweet, sweet surrender
|
Sweet sweet, sweet surrender
|
Sweet sweet, sweet surrender
|
|

|
(sweet sweet)
|
Living in the electronic world
|
Living in the molecular world
