Liberator Songtext
von Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

I fell in love with a liberator
She kept me waiting four hours later
She screams and shouts and she tells me lies
But she gets away with her steel blue eyes

I fell in love with a girl in black
She′s far away but I want her back
She seldom calls and she never writes
I think of her almost every night

I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love
I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love

I gave my love to a liberator
And they say that love will make you greater
It's just a lie to keep you down
To make you swim when you wanna drown


If Christmas comes ten times a year
It wouldn′t even dry one tear
At times like these I do my best
And cry with one more last request

I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love
I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love

And she'll never, never ever know
That I'll never, ever let her go
And she′ll never, never even care
If she turns around, and I′m not there

I fell in love with a liberator
Seems I gave my heart to a generator
She burns and burns and she hurts best
Oh it'd break my heart if I had one left

I′ve tried and tried but I can't explain
It′s not a feeling I'll have again
But if God Almighty looked down on me
I wouldn′t ask him, "Set me free"


I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love
I surrender, I surrender
I will surrender to your love

And she'll never, never ever know
That I'll never, ever let her go
And she′ll never, never even care
If she turns around, and I′m not there
