Sweet Surrender

Music and Lyrics by Sarah McLachlan


 it doesn't mean much
 it doesn't mean anything at all
 the life I've left behind me
 is a cold room
 I've crossed the last line
 from where I can't return
 where every step I took in faith
 betrayed me
 and led me from my home

 and sweet
 sweet surrender
 is all that I have to give

 you take me in
 no questions asked
 you strip away the ugliness
 that surrounds me
 are you an angel
 am I already that gone
 I only hope
 that I won't disappoint you
 when I'm down here
 on my knees

 and sweet
 sweet
 sweet surrender
 is all that I have to give

 sweet
 sweet
 sweet surrender
 is all that I have to give

 and I don't understand
 by the touch of your hand
 I would be the one to fall

 I miss the little things
 oh I miss everything

 it doesn't mean much
 it doesn't mean anything at all
 the life I left behind me
 is a cold room
