Guess I took it for granted

That you'd feel the same as me

Had enough of romances ending unromantically

You don't take any chances

But you gamble aimlessly

Always running in circles

Keeping phoney company

You call'em up when you get in town

'cos it's time to play the game

Hangin' out at the place to be

Where the people know your name



And I'm tryin' to say

It doesn't matter at all

It doesn't matter what you do

I'm gonna leave you anyway

But I want you to know

You'll be the one who'll lose



It was foolish to kid myself

That love's a guarantee

It's an illusion that's often sold

But never comes for free

Can you see what you're losing

Oh, can you even really see

Seems you're so busy moving, honey

You never even noticed you lost me

And I'm trying to say

It doesn't matter at all

It doesn't matter how you feel

I'm gonna say it anyway

Cos I want you to know

You'll be the one who'll lose
