Surrender - The Roots, Betty Wright

Ohhhh-hooooo, ooh-ooh-ooh

Hey, heyy, heyy… Mmmm…

I’m waving my flag, I surrender

I feel it’s love this time

His kisses are warm, and oh so tender

And I think the time is right

But I’ve been hurt so many times

I don’t wanna be flying blind

Not at this time (not at this time)

In my lifetime (in my lifetime)

So I- I’m.

I’m waving my flag, I surrender

I think it’s love this time

As far back as I can remember

He said he was that guy

And I’ve been wounded so many times

All that I could think in my mind

Was not at this time (not at this time)

In my lifetime (in my lifetime)

But, I-I-I.

I…

I need someone who’s good at opening doors

Someone to give me what I need and more (I need)

Someone who’s lookin out for me (I need)

Someone who let’s me be free (I need)

Someone who has my interest at heart (I need)

Someone who’ll love me right from the start (I need)

With all, with all his heart

With all of his heaaa-AAAAAAAAAAAAAA-art

I’m waving my flag, I surrender

I feel it’s love this time

His kisses are warm, and oh so tender

And I think the time is right

I’m waving my flag, I surrender

I think it’s love this time

As far back as I can remember

He said he was that guy
