Lyrics for Abba - The Winner Takes It All

I donâ??t wanna talk
about the things weâ??ve gone through
though itâ??s hurting me
now itâ??s history
Iâ??ve played all my cards
and thatâ??s what youâ??ve done too
nothing more to say
no more ace to play

The winner takes it all
the loser standing small
beside the victory
thatâ??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 Iâ??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
itâ??s simple and itâ??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 donâ??t wanna talk
if it makes you feel sad
and I understand
youâ??ve come to shake my hand
I apologise
if it makes you feel bad
seeing me so tense
no self-confidence

But you see
the winner takes it all
