(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)



I want the love that you deny me

That I need so desperately

The tenderness that you posses

You've deprived me



You must pray for the lonely night

That I walked the floor for you

And don't know you must erase

All the tearstairs on my face



Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love

Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love



Don't you know that I'm taking my case

To the highest court of love

And these are some of the charges

You'll be found guilty of



You've used me and abused me

'Till I felt like I wanted to die

You created a need in me

That only you can satisfy



Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love

Come along peacefully

Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love



Give it to me, ah right now

Give it to me, give it to me

Give it to me all, give it to me

Ah, right now, give it to me

Give it to me, give it to me



Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love

Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love



Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love

Surrender your love baby

Surrender your love
