I don't wanna talk    About 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's 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 (takes it all)    The loser has to fall (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 (will decide)    The likes of me abide (me abide)    Spectators of the show, always staying low    The game is on again (on again)    A lover or a friend (or a friend)    A big thing or a small (big or small)    The winner takes it all (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       So the winner takes it all    And the the loser has to fall    Throw a dice, cold as ice    Way down here, someone dear    Takes it all, has to fall....
