I Surrender Dear Lyrics - Aretha Franklin

We played the game 

Of stay away 

But it cost more 

Than I can take 

Without you 

I can't make my way 

I surrender, dear 

Now I must seem proud 

I may act gay 

But it's just a pose 

I'm not that way

'Cause deep down 

Deep down in my heart 

I say, I surrender, dear 

Little mean things 

We were doing 

Must have been 

Part of the game 

Lending a spice to the wooing 

Oh, but I don't care 

Who's to blame, blame 

When stars appear 

And shadows fall 

Why didn't you hear 

My poor heart call 

To you, my love 

My life, my all 

I surrender, dear

Oh, I, I surrender, dear 

Oh, yeah, I 

Oh, Isurrender, yeah, dear 

Yeah, yeah
