What were we doing little darling
worked so hard at something to defend
i think i know how you were feeling
your sweet broken heart was on the mend
we didn't make no money honey
or any sense out of it in the end
this time i've got to tell you
we're backed up to the wall
love wins again
love wins again after
the game has had it's final curtain call
love wins again and you know
this time the dealer will take all
for every plan we had in mind
seems something always got in the way
our feelings just got verified
never left you reasons to save face
now that we've had time to think it
oh, but there's no time left we can waste
the cards are all turned up
the deal is life at stake
love wins again
this time i've got to tell you
backed up to the wall
love wins again
