Sweet Surrender - Tim Buckley

Now you wanna know the reason

Why I cheated on you

Well, I had to be a hunter again

This little man had to try to make love feel new again

'Cause there’s just a few things honey

I’m not old enough to do for you

And they’re the things mama

You just never care to show me

So this flimflam lover boy found him a flamingo

And his flamingo showed him how to tango

And when they tangoed it’d send their hearts a flutter

Tease him til he stuttered

Young and tender

Seemed to surrender in so sweet surrender

In sweet surrender

Ah, sweet surrender to love

But, now you’re gonna go out and get yourself a reputation

But, I’m gonna have to show you where to start

And then you’re gonna bring back your little reputation

And prove to me what I could not prove to you

Cause I was just too young at heart

Just too cold, Honey

Just too hard to care

Just too hard, right

Too surrender

Surrender to love

Sweet Surrender

Surrender to love

If we could just Surrender

Love would heal the mess we made

So give it up, Mamma, it a’int gonna be no good going round and around

You’l hurt me, then i’ll hurt you again

All that’s left to do

Is give it, ahhh

Give it up and Surrender

Sweet Surrender

Sweet Surrender

Surrender your love

Surrender

Oh, Surrender

Surrender that love

Sweet, sweet, sweet Surrender, Mama to love, to love to love
