Lyrics Surrender - Bettye LaVette

Surrender

I want the love that you deny me
That I need so desperately
The tenderness that you posses
You’ve deprived me
You must pray for the lonely night
That I walked the floor for you
And don’t know you must erase
All the tearstairs on my face
Surrender your love, baby
Surrender your love
Surrender your love, baby
Surrender your love
Don’t you know that I’m taking my case
To the highest court of love
And these are some of the charges
You’ll be found guilty of
You’ve used me and abused me
'Till I felt like I wanted to die
You created a need in me
That only you can satisfy
Give it to me, ah right now
Give it to me, give it to me
Give it to me all, give it to me
Ah, right now, give it to me
Give it to me, give it to me
