Song Of Surrender
Dick Haymes · Other Songs - Dick Haymes
Hear the treetops sigh
Hear the wind come whispering by
It's the song of surrender
Kisses waiting, warm and shy
Hear the lonely stream
Murmur low, come live your dream
Hear the song of surrender
How can we resist it's theme
For love seems to glow in the night
Why don't we follow its light
Know in your heart that it's right
To love, take my love
Take my love to hold
Till the stars wither and grow old
Hear the night calling near us
Oh, be fearless, oh, be free
Hear the song of surrender and come to me
(Take my love to hold)
(Till the stars wither and grow old)
Hear the night calling near us
Oh, be fearless, oh, be free
Hear the song of surrender and come to me
Hear the wind come whispering by
It's the song of surrender
Kisses waiting, warm and shy
Hear the lonely stream
Murmur low, come live your dream
Hear the song of surrender
How can we resist it's theme
For love seems to glow in the night
Why don't we follow its light
Know in your heart that it's right
To love, take my love
Take my love to hold
Till the stars wither and grow old
Hear the night calling near us
Oh, be fearless, oh, be free
Hear the song of surrender and come to me
(Take my love to hold)
(Till the stars wither and grow old)
Hear the night calling near us
Oh, be fearless, oh, be free
Hear the song of surrender and come to me
