His letter came this morning
C.O.D.
Says he's found somebody
Who reminds him of me
He says he needs some space
That might be the case
Wasn't even man enough
To tell me to my face
I got the rompin', stompin'
Bad news blues
He stole my money
He stole my time
When he stole my heart
Honey, he really crossed that line
A major felony
Send out an A.P.B.
Go tell that thief of hearts
To bring it on back to me
I got the rompin', stompin'
Bad news blues
Well, come tonight
I'm steppin' out
Gonna sing and dance
Gonna shake and shout
Forget about ol' what's his name
You know two can play this game
Whatever it takes to lose
These rompin', stompin'
Bad news blues
Well, men are full of trouble
Girl, that ain't nothin' new
We ain't found nothin' better
And until the day we do
Sister friend, be wise
Just realize
Stay away from the ones
Who'll do you wrong and tell you lies
They'll give you the rompin', stompin'
Bad news blues
That's right
They'll give you the rompin', stompin'
Bad news bluesI can't pretend anymore
That I am not affected, I'm not moved
I can't lie to myself that I'm not always thinking of you
You make me strong
You show me I'm not weak to fall in love
When I thought I'd never need
Now I can't get enough
Bridge:
I always made it on my own,
I always thought that I would keep control
You changed everything I believe in,
And now I just can't fight this feeling baby
Chorus:
I raise my hands and I surrender
'Cause your love is too strong and I can't go on
Without your tender arms around me,
I raise my hands and I surrender
I don't wanna resist 'cause your touch and your kiss
Have shattered my defenses
I surrender
I have to admit that I,
I never thought I'd need someone this way
you opened my eyes so that I...
I can see so much more
Bridge:
I always made it on my own
I always thought that I would keep control
You changed everything I believe in
And now I just can't fight this feeling baby
Chorus:
I raise my hands and I surrender
'Cause your love is too strong and I can't go on
Without your tender arms around me
I raise my hands and I surrender
I don't wanna resist 'cause your touch and your kiss
Have shattered my defenses
I surrender
I surrender to this feeling in my heart
I surrender to the safety of your arms
To the touch of your lips
To the taste of your kisses
I raise my hands and I surrender
'Cause your love is too strong and I can't go on
Without your tender arms around me
I raise my hands and I surrender
'Cause your love is too strong and I can't go on
Without you..........
I surrender
I raise my hands and I surrender
'Cause your love is too strong and I can't go on
Without your tender arms around me
I surrender
I can't pretend anymore
I can't lie to myself that I'm not always thinking of you.
