Surrender
Gloria Estefan & The Miami Sound Machine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Will you tell me
All your secrets
Could you really be sincere
Whisper all your inhibitions
The things you most fear
Don't turn away
I want to get to know you in the worst, worst way
Come back baby come back
Come back baby come back
Come back baby come back
Surrender su-su-surrender to me
Surrender su-su-surrender
Will you show me
All your treasures
That which is most near and dear
Share with me your
Prized possessions
Not just some souvenirs
Don't be afraid
A little tiny bit can go a long long way
Come back baby come back
Come back baby come back
Come back baby come back
Surrender su-su-surrender to me
Surrender su-su-surrender
Babe I love you can't you see
Baby tell me haow you feel about me
Do you want me
Do you need me
Baby tell me honestly
Do you want me
Love forever or temporarily
You've got the key
So open up your heart and
Be my destiny
Come back baby come back
Come back baby come back




Surrender su-su-surrender

I remember them performing a medley of their hits at the American Music Awards in the 80's and this song has always stuck with me. I was just a young kid then and I knew the song was fire.

Ben Caruso

Classic Gloria Estefan! My dad used to sell her albums and she was always one my favorites! Many did not understand her crazy bossa nova music at first but after a short time they got the hang of it and WoW the rest of the superstardom is all history now!

Los 80's, marcaron un hito, para mi fue la mejor época de la música, en todos sus generos, hay en dia no se oye nada igual.

Ulis LD

para mí las mejores canciones de Gloria Estefán de 1983 a 1992 ( Conga, surrender, prisioner of lover, hot summer nights, 1,2,3 remix, Oye mi canto, Doctor Beat, beab boy, liven for loving you, mama I cant go, Here we are, anything for you, coming out of the dark, Seal our fate, Go away, cant stay away from you)

Hannah Raven
