Bread's songs are some of greatest songs ever written. I can sit for hours and just kick back and listen to that music. As a singer/songwriter myself I envy their styles.
Love it

The decade of the 70's will NEVER be duplicated and I am glad I was there. it really was the best of both worlds wedged between the wonderful 50-60's and the 80-90's.
Baby I'm through runnin' it's true
I'd be a fool to try to escape you
Maybe I'm beat but oh what a sweet surrender
You keep your rights, I'll take your nights
No one can lose when we turn the lights out
Tastin' defeat, lovin' that sweet surrender
I'm givin' up myself to you but I didn't really lose at all
I gained the only love I've known and it never hurt me to fall
Now that it's done, so glad you won
I know our lives have only begun now
No more retreat, only my sweet surrender
Umm Babe, I may be beat, but oh what a sweet surrender
surrender...
And you, sweet thing in my life
I surrender to you
You know, whether it's David Gates and Bread, AMERICA, England Dan and John Ford Coley, Janis Ian (At Seventeen), or Dan Fogelberg, they all had an impact, or left a lasting impression on me. I really miss those days because my dad was alive then, and now he's gone. And this is coming from a decent, 56 year old black air force vet.
