Sweet Surrender lyrics by Bread

Title: Sweet Surrender
Artist: Bread

------------------------------

Baby I'm through runnin', it's true
I'd be a fool to try to escape you
Maybe I'm beat but oh what a
sweet surrender

You keep your rights, I'll take your nights
No one can lose when we
turn the lights out, Tastin' defeat,
lovin' that sweet surrender

I'm givin' up myself to you
but I didn't really lose at all
I gave the only love I've known
and it never hurt me to fall

Now that it's done, so glad you won
I know our lives have only begun
No more retreat,
only my sweet surrender

I may repeat,
Oh what a sweet surrender
Surrender,
and you, sweet thing in my life,
I surrender to you
