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 looser standing small

Beside the victory

That's 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 I'd be strong there

But I was a fool playing by the rules



The gods made throw a dice their minds

As cold as ice

And someone way down here looses

Someone dear



The winner takes it all

The looser 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 like 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 winners 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...
