i dont wanna talk

about the things weve gone through

though its hurting me

now its history

ive played all my cards

and thats what youve done too

nothing more to say

no more ace to play

the winner takes it all

the loser standing small

beside the victory

thats 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 id 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

its simple and its 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
