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
C'mon

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here loses someone dear

Oh
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 he kiss
Oh
Like I used to kiss you
Does it feel the same when he calls your name

Somewhere deep inside you must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
Yeah

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
Oh
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
Yeah
Oh
The winner takes it all
All
Yeah
