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
Every man 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
The 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
Didn't come down here to fight you
I came here down these streets
Of love and pride to surrender
The Streets of Surrender
Oh, 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, cryin' '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
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 choose 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
