Every Loser Wins

We nearly made it

We nearly found the perfect combination

The road was right, we must have read the signs wrong

And now it's all gone

But if we'd made it

Could we be sure that it was for the better?

Who could say we would have stayed together?

Nothing is certain in a changing world

Every loser wins once the dream begins

In time you'll see fate holds the key

And every loser knows the light the tunnel shows

Will shine on you, and all those who knew

We nearly made it

But suddenly we seemed to stop and lose our way

But did it really matter anyway?

For that was yesterday

And we must live for now

'Cause every loser wins once the dream begins

In time you'll see fate holds the key

And every loser knows the light the tunnel shows

Will shine on you, and all those who knew

We nearly made it

Stand up and count me

I know you're on my side

Shine down on me

And those who believe

That we can make it
