I Surrender-David Sylvian.mp3
[00:23]I opened up the pathway of the heart [00:29...
[00:23]I opened up the pathway of the heart
[00:29]The flowers died embittered from the start
[00:36]That night I crossed the bridge of sighs and I surrender
[00:49]I looked back and glimpsed the outline of a boy
[00:56]His life of sorrows now collapsing into joy
[01:03]And tonight the stars are all aligned and I surrender
[01:17]My mother cries beneath a southern sky and I surrender
[01:29]Recording angels and the poets of the night
[01:36]Bring back the trophies of the battles that we fight
[01:44]Searchlights fill the open skies and I surrender
[02:38]Outrageous cries of love have called you back
[02:43]Derailed the trains of thought, demolished wayward tracks
[02:51]You tell me I've no need to wonder why, I just surrender
[03:31]I stand too close to see the sleight of hand
[03:38]How she found this child inside the frightened man
[03:45]Tonight I'm learning how to fly and I surrender
[03:59]I've traveled all this way for your embrace
[04:05]Enraptured by the recognition on your face
[04:11]Hold me now while my old life dies tonight and I surrender
[04:26]My mother cries beneath the open skies and I surrender
[04:39]An ancient evening just before the fall
[04:46]The light in your eyes, the meaning of it all
[04:53]Birds fly and fill the summer skies and I surrender
[05:06]She throws the burning books into the sea
[05:12]Come find the meaning of the word inside of me
[05:20]It's alright, the stars are all aligned and I surrender
[05:34]My mother cries beneath the moonlit skies and I surrender
[06:14]My body turns to ashes in her hands
[06:20]The disappearing world of footprints in the sand
[06:27]Tell me now that this love will never die and I'll surrender
[06:41]My mother cries beneath the open skies and I surrender
