Time To Surrender

(album: Winger - 1988)

I'm out the back door just before midnight
I push the pedal to the floor---I run away
She says it's only in my head
But my heart is screaming

Hey you!! What you trying to prove
I won't play your game and
I won't play your fool
Hey you!! Best be making your move
Play your last hand
Better understand

[Chorus:]
Now it's time to surrender, yeah!!
Cause my love don't live here anymore
Oooo babe, time to surrender
There's nothing left to fight for
There's nothing left to save

Oh! she cries so tough
It's too hard to let go of
The lies inside the shadow
Of her tears and of her pain
And I denied when she was
Playing the heartbreaker

Hey you!! What you trying to prove
I won't play your game and
I won't play your fool
Hey you!! Best be making your move
Play you last hand
Better understand

[Chorus:]
Now it's time to surrender, yeah!!
Cause my love don't live here anymore
Time to surrender
It's not love your making
It's my heart you're breaking

[Solo]

Oh no!! I can't take this again
Night after night,
Just pretending
Oh no!! It's closer to the end
My body says go,
But I know that

[Chorus:]
Now it's time to surrender, yeah!!
Cause my love don't live here anymore
Time to surrender
There's nothing left to fight for
There's nothing left to save

Time to surrender, yeah!!
Cause my love don't live here anymore
Time to surrender
It's not love your making
It's my heart you're breaking

Surrender!!
