Surrender – Lyrics
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t surrender
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t
Before I surrender my love to you I’d rather lie down in the street and get hit by a big mack truck
Surrender my love to you?
I’d rather sleep in a lion’s den. maybe then I’ll have better luck
I get so mad thinking of the chance you had
You had my love, but you didn’t want it then
So now before I give you my love I’ll need a better excuse to take that abuse again
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t surrender
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t
Before I surrender my love to you I’d rather jump into the sea and be eaten by a big fat shark
Surrender my love to you?
Like a hunter you never miss your mark
I think this time you are gonna find you want my love, you’ll have to take it
So now come on and shoot your best shot
Come on, give me all you got
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t surrender
Surrender my love to you? oh no. I won’t
