Got to leave, got to go downtown Got to see the man who won't beat around He understands what we've got to do And everything he says rings true. Walking in this wilderness, wearing out my shoes Staring at the living dead, peddling my blues I might be in heaven or I might be in hell I don't know which is which, sometimes you just can't tell. Sweet surrender Sweet surrender I wake up every morning, I lie down every night As long as I believe in love, I know it's gonna be alright. I try to keep it simple, take it one day at a time When I'm losing my direction, well that ain't no crime Sweet surrender Sweet surrender But everytime we drift away into the magic of the night You hold me close and I hear you say Sweet surrender (surrender) Living in the electronic world Living in the molecular world Living in the electronic world Living in the molecular world Check into hotels, checking out the street Air-conditioned Cadillacs when I can't stand the heat I just hit another road-block and I'm runnin' out of gas I've got this white line fever, but I know that it won't last. Sweet surrender Sweet surrender But everytime we drift away into the magic of the night You hold me close and I hear you say Sweet surrender (surrender) Got to leave, got to go downtown Got to see the man who won't beat around He understands what we've got to do And everything he says rings true. Sweet sweet, sweet surrender Sweet sweet, sweet surrender Sweet sweet, sweet surrender Sweet sweet, sweet surrender [Fade] (sweet sweet) Living in the electronic world Living in the molecular world
