I don't wanna talk |
About the things we've gone through |
Though it's hurting me |
Now it's history |
I've played all my cards |
And that's what you've done too |
Nothing more to say |
No more ace to play |
Chorus: |
The winner takes it all |
The loser standing small |
Beside the victory |
That's her destiny |
I was in your arms |
Thinking I belonged there |
I figured it made sense |
Building me a fence |
Building me a home |
Thinking I'd be strong there |
But I was a fool |
Playing by the rules |
The gods may throw a dice |
Their minds as cold as ice |
And someone way down here |
Loses someone dear |
The winner takes it all |
The loser has to fall |
It's simple and it's plain |
Why should I complain. |
But tell me does she kiss |
Like I used to kiss you? |
Does it feel the same |
When she calls your name? |
Somewhere deep inside |
You must know I miss you |
But what can I say |
Rules must be obeyed |
The judges will decide |
The likes of me abide |
Spectators of the show |
Always staying low |
The game is on again |
A lover or a friend |
A big thing or a small |
The winner takes it all |
I don't wanna talk |
If it makes you feel sad |
And I understand |
You've come to shake my hand |
I apologize |
If it makes you feel bad |
Seeing me so tense |
No self-confidence |
But you see |
Bridge: |
x2 |
Repeat Chorus |
