I Surrender, Dear

Bing Crosby · Centennial Anthology [2010]

We've played the game of, 'Stay away'



But it costs more than I can pay



Without you I can't make my way



I surrender, dear



I may seem proud and I may act gay



It's just a pose, I'm not that way



'Cause 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



When stars appear and shadows fall



By then you'll hear my poor heart call



To you my love, my life, my all



I surrender, dear



Oh, to you my love, my life, my all



I surrender, dear
