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
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
The winner
takes it all...
The winner
takes it all...
