I Surrender Dear Songtext
von Jimmy Rushing

We played the game of "Stay away"
But it costs more than I can pay
Without you, I can′t make my way
I surrender, dear

I may seem proud and I may act gay
It's just a pose, I′m not that way
'Cause deep down in my heart I say
I surrender, dear


Little mean things we were doing
Must have been part of the game
Lending a spice to the wound
But I don't care who′s to blame

When stars appear and shadows fall, shadows fall
Why then you′ll hear my poor heart call
To you my love, my life, my all
I surrender dear

Little things we were doing
Must have been part of the game
Lending a spice to the wound
But I don't care, baby, who′s to blame


When stars appear and shadows fall, shadows fall
Why then you'll hear my poor heart call
To you, my love, my life, my all
I surrender, dear
