Sweet Surrender Lyrics

Artist: John Denver

Sweet Surrender
John Denver

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Traveled by many, remembered by few
Lookin' for something that I can believe in
Lookin' for something that I'd like to do with my life

There's nothin' behind me and nothin' that ties me to
Something that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open and right now it seems to be more than enough
To just be here today, and I don't know

What the future is holdin' in store
I don't know where I'm goin' I'm not sure where I've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the livin', I don't need to see the end

Sweet, sweet surrender, live, live without care
Like a fish in the water, like a bird in the air.

A life long John Denver fan. I have sung his music all over the world. The lyrics of this song are truly inspirational. John is sadly missed but "though the singer is silent there still is the truth of the song!
