Sweet Surrender Sweet Surrender is the title of a popular song by the American singer-songwriter John Denver. It was originally recorded for his 1974 album Back Home Again, but was chosen as the lead single from the concert album An Evening with John Denver. "Sweet Surrender" reached #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 1975, remaining in the Top 40 for eight weeks. It also rose to #1 on the adult contemporary chart, Denver's fourth song to reach the top on this survey. Following a theme common to many of Denver's songs, the lyrics to "Sweet Surrender" deal with a journey of self-exploration tied to themes of nature and environment. The single version of "Sweet Surrender" has yet to appear on any compact disc or digital reissue, characterized by its lack of applause over the introduction. John Denver's "Sweet Surrender" was the opening theme song of the 1974 Walt Disney movie The Bears and I. It was covered by the pop/folk band "The Seekers" and appeared on the Australian release of their 1975 self-titled album. (source) Lyrics 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 Here's a longer clip of a John Denver concert from 1979 RELATED: Hank Williams: A Short Career With A Lasting Impact On Country Music
