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 I made sense
Building me a fence

Building me a home

Thinkink 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

The winner takes it all.

The winner takes it all
