Carla Bruni - The Winner Takes It All lyrics

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?

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
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

The winner takes it all

The winner takes it all

The winner takes it all
