Surrender

Play MP3

 

So it seems I got it wrong when I’ve been looking for the cause

Singing the song but seeking the applause

I tried to do it right and I thought I’d done OK

I hoped at least my effort might have saved the day

But every time I thought that I had found the missing chord

I lost it in the instant that I looked for my reward

 

And now I know – but how can I say?

Now I know, but how can I say?

Surrender, Surrender

Surrender

 

To think that all this time I have been looking for the truth

My mind’s been working endlessly to organise the proof

I tried to do it right and I thought I’d done OK

I hoped at least my effort might have saved the day

But every time it seemed that everything was in its place

I’d only built a shield against the healing winds of grace

 

And now I know – but how can I say?

Now I know, but how can I say?

Surrender, Surrender

Surrender

 

Always digging deeper, never sure of what I’d find

I put away experience in files within my mind

I never understood the bursting feeling in my heart,

That my mind was keeping knowledge of the truth and me apart

But there has to be a master key that everyone can turn

To reach the field of freedom where each of us can learn

 

And now I know – but how can I say?

Now I know, but how can I say?

Surrender, Surrender

Surrender
