Surrender - Kool & The Gang

Just a photograph and dreams that won’t come true

I’ll never know why I left you standin' in the rain

Cryin' tears of emptyness it’s drivin' me insane

All I wanted was to love you

Never wanted to see you cry

All I need is just to hold you

I just can’t say — Goodbye

Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I’ll be your defender

Cause if love means war, baby I surrender

You use words as weapons I use love as a shield

So tell me why are we on this battlefield

In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames

In a world of anger there’s got to be a way

Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I’ll be your defender

Cause if love means war, baby I surrender

We’re just soldiers from the heart and I ain’t no pretender

So lay down your arms and baby let’s surrender

And thought my aim is true

I sometimes miss the mark

Ooh, in matters of the heart

But I’d give my life tonight

To hold you in my arms

In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames

In a world of anger there’s got to be a way

I just wanna hold you (surrender)

I just wanna love you (surrender)

I never meant to make you cry

Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but I’ll be your defender

Cause if love means war, baby I surrender

We’re just soldiers of from the heart and I ain’t no pretender

So lay down you arms and baby let’s surrender
