Streets of Surrender [S.O.S.] lyrics

Every man has got two cities he needs to be

The one he can touch and the one he can't see

The one where a stranger's a friend

Everyman has got one city of liberty

For me it's Paris, I love it

Every time I try to lose myself

I seem to find these streets of surrender

You're free, baby, baby

Free now and forever

It's Christmas time, you can decide

To forget or to remember

You're free, baby, baby

I didn't come down here to fight you

I came here down these streets

Of love and pride to surrender

The streets of surrender

Of surrender

I heard the oldest story that nobody seems to know

I think it was about that stranger

It was youth and love and it was danger

It was winter, but that warm it gets before the snow

It froze my soul

I'm crying, crying 'bout some kid that they found

Lying on a beach, born in a manger

You're free, baby, baby

Free now and forever

It's Christmas time, you can decide

To forget or to remember

You're free, baby, baby

I didn't come down here to fight you

I came here down these streets

Of love and pride to surrender

The streets of surrender

I live in the stories that are told

In the child you chose to hold

And the ones you turn away

To be free, baby, baby

Free now and forever

This vale of tears will disappear

And it's love you will remember

You're free, baby, baby

I didn't come down here to fight you

I came here down these streets

Of love and pride to surrender

The streets of surrender

The streets of surrender
