I don't wanna talk about things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me now it's history
I 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's standing small
Beside the victory it's a destiny
I was in your arms thinking I belonged there
I figured it make sense building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'll be strong there
But I was a fool playing by the rules
The gods may throw the 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 abied
Spectators on the show always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend?
A victim is so 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
