The Winner Takes It All

Abba

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 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 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 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 likes 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 winner 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
