Sweet Surrender

John Denver · The Ultimate Collection [2011]

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway

Traveled by many, remembered by few

Looking for something that I can believe in

Looking for something that I'd like to do with my life



There's nothing behind me and nothing that ties me

To something that might have been true yesterday

Tomorrow is open and right now it seems

To be more than enough to just be here today



I don't know what the future is holding in store

I don't know where I'm going

I'm not sure where I've been

There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me

My life is worth the living....I don't need to see the end



Chorus



Sweet, sweet surrender

Live, live without care

Like a fish in the water

Like a bird in the air



(Repeat Chorus)
