Say you will, say you will
Please surrender to me
Say you will, say you will

Please say that I can take you this moment
Please say you'll let me take you for my wife
Our love will grow tonight if you will
Give me your answer, give me your answer

You will honour and obey me
I will love and cherish you
For poor or richer, darling
Forsaking everyone but you

Say you will, say you will
Please surrender to me
Say you will, say you will

Our love will grow tonight if you will
Give me your answer, give me your answer
With this body I thee worship
Let them forever hold their peace
For worse or for better darling
Only unto you as long as you may live

I will love and comfort you, yeah
If you only say that you will
Take me illegal or lawful
To have and to hold from this day forward

Please surrender to me
Say you will, say you will
Give me your answer, give me your answer
Please say that I can take you this moment
Please say that I can trust you tonight

Please surrender to me
Say you will, say you will
Give me your answer, give me your answer

Robert Palmer

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
