Pride, sad, splendid liar, |
|
Sworn enemy of love |
|
Kept my lips from saying |
|
Things I was thinking of. |
|
But now my pride you've humbled, |
|
I've cast it to the winds, |
|
Broken, beaten, sick at heart |
|
My confession begins. |
|
We've played the game of stay away |
|
But it cost more that I can pay. |
|
Without you I can't make my way, |
|
I surrender, dear. |
|
I may seem proud, 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 wooing, |
|
But I don't care who's to blame. |
|
When stars appear And shadows fall, |
|
Why then you'll hear My poor heart call, |
|
To you my love, my life, my all |
|
I surrender, dear. |
