Soft Cell - Surrender to a Stranger Lyrics

Lonely

I'd like to drown me in my coffee
Counting hours with cappuccinos


Sitting framed within the window

I sit here acting like I'm reading
I'm lonely

I'm reading minds


And sadly dreaming
There's some of me left to believe in



Surrender



Surrender


That businessman smell
Found in one night hotels

The sheets are unwashed

Tobacco and sweat
From the stories they tell


And initials in dust


The man at the desk
Throws you looks of disgust


Soon I'll try hard to lose you
Drown you in my cappuccino



Surrender

Surrender



Sodom and Gomorrah
Come tomorrow


I won't know you from Adam or Eve

Look me in the eyes

And tell me you love me

Once, before you leave



Surrender

Surrender
