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

The winner takes it all

The loser has to fall

It's simple and it's plain

Why should I complain?

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

The loser has to fall

It's simple and it's plain

Why should I complain?

The winner takes it all

The loser has to fall

Beside the victory

That's her destiny
