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 loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's my 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 may throw a dice their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here loses someone dear

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
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 winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
Beside the victory
That's my destiny

The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all
