Surrender To A Stranger - Soft Cell

Lonely

I’d like to drown me in my coffee

Counting hours with cappuccinos

Sitting framed within the window

I’m lonely

I sit here acting like I’m reading

I’m reading minds

And sadly dreaming

There’s some of me left to believe in

Surrender

Surrender

That businessman smell

Found in one night hotels

The sheets are unwashed

From the stories they tell

Tobacco and sweat

And initials in dust

The man at the desk

Throws you looks of disgust

Soon I’ll try hard to lose you

Drown you in my cappuccino

Surrender

Surrender

Sodom and Gomorrah

Come tomorrow

I won’t know you from Adam or Eve

Look me in the eyes

And tell me you love me

Once, before you leave

Surrender

Surrender
