The Winner Takes It All

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 playThe winner takes it all, the loser standing small

Beside the victory, that's her destinyI 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 obeyedThe 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, the winner takes it all

The winner takes it all
