1
Pride, sad, splendid liar,
2
Sworn enemy of love
3
Kept my lips from saying
4
Things I was thinking of.
5
But now my pride you've humbled,
6
I've cast it to the winds,
7
Broken, beaten, sick at heart
8
My confession begins.
9
We've played the game of stay away
10
But it cost more that I can pay.
11
Without you I can't make my way,
12
I surrender, dear.
13
I may seem proud, I may act gay,
14
It's just a pose, I'm not that way,
15
'Cause deep down in my heart I say
16
I surrender, dear.
17
Little mean things we were doing
18
Must have been part of the game,
19
Lending a spice to the wooing,
20
But I don't care who's to blame.
21
When stars appear and shadows fall,
22
Why then you'll hear My poor heart call,
23
To you my love, my life, my all
24
I surrender, dear.
25
We've played the game of stay away
26
But it cost more that I can pay.
27
Without you I can't make my way,
28
I surrender, dear.
29
I may seem proud, I may act gay,
30
It's just a pose, I'm not that way,
31
'Cause deep down in my heart I say
32
I surrender, dear.
33
Little mean things we were doing
34
Must have been part of the game,
35
Lending a spice to the wooing,
36
But I don't care who's to blame.
37
When stars appear And shadows fall,
38
Why then you'll hear My poor heart call,
39
To you my love, my life, my all
