Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, the city's alight with lovers and lies
And bright blue eyes
Oh, the city is bright
It's brighter than day tonight
[Chorus]
Surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender
[Verse 2]
Sadie said she couldn't work out what it was all about
And so she let go
Now Sadie's on the street
And the people she meets you know
[Verse 3]
She tried to be a good girl and a good wife
Raise a good family, lead a good life
It's not good enough
She got herself up on the forty-eighth floor
Gotta find out, find out what she's living for
[Chorus]
Surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender
[Post-Chorus]
Tonight
[Verse 4]
Oh, the city's afire

More Lyrics
Produced by Steve Lillywhite
A passionate flame that knows me by name
Oh, the city's desire
To take me for more and more
[Verse 5]
It's in the street gettin' under my feet
It's in the air, it's everywhere I look for you
It's in the things that I do and say
And if I wanna live I gotta die to myself someday
[Bridge]
Papa, sing my, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my, sing my song
[Chorus]
Surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender
