The Winner Takes It All

I don't wanna talk
 About 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's 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 the dice
 Their minds as cold as ice
 And someone way down here
 Loses someone dear
 The winner takes it all
 (Takes it all)
 The loser's standing small
 (Standing small)
 It's simple and it's plain
 (It seems plain)
 Why should I complain?
 (Why 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
 (They decide)
 The likes of me abide
 (We abide)
 Spectators of the show
 (Of the show)
 Always staying low
 (Staying low)
 The game is on again
 (On again)
 A lover or a friend (
 Or a friend)
 A big thing or a small
 (Big or small)
 The winner takes it all
 (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...
 So the winner
 Takes it all
 And the loser
 Has to fall
