ARETHA FRANKLIN - I Surrender, Dear lyrics

rate me

We played the game<br />

Of stay away<br />

But it cost more<br />

Than I can take<br />

<br />

Without you<br />

I can't make my way<br />

I surrender, dear<br />

<br />

Now I must seem proud<br />

I may act gay<br />

But it's just a pose<br />

I'm not that way<br />

<br />

'Cause deep down<br />

Deep down in my heart<br />

I say, I surrender, dear<br />

<br />

Little mean things<br />

We were doing<br />

Must have been<br />

Part of the game<br />

<br />

Lending a spice to the wooing<br />

Oh, but I don't care<br />

Who's to blame, blame<br />

<br />

When stars appear<br />

And shadows fall<br />

Why didn't you hear<br />

My poor heart call<br />

<br />

To you, my love<br />

My life, my all<br />

I surrender, dear<br />

<br />

Oh, I, I surrender, dear<br />

Oh, yeah, I<br />

Oh, Isurrender, yeah, dear<br />

Yeah, yeah
