(Leo Sayer / Alan Tarney)
|
You win - I lose
|
That's how it all begins
|
Well I try so hard in these affairs of the heart
|
But I know that I'll never win
|
Well I talk to you sweet like honey
|
And don't I treat you as nice as pie
|
But I can't figure out when you scream and you shout
|
Why I have to apologise
|
You win - I lose
|
That's how it always goes
|
I came into this thing with my heart in a spin
|
I went out with a broken nose
|
You win - I lose
|
That's how it's meant to be
|
Well I tried all I can just figure it out
|
But love's just a mystery
|
Guess all you ladies would call me easy
|
But I'm a fool for the femme fatale
|
When she flashes those eyes, I'm not a man, I'm a mouse
|
Tryin' to patch up a broken heart
|
You win - I lose
|
That's OK, that's the way it goes
|
Well I tried all I could but it did me no good
|
'Cos all I've got is nothin' to show
|
They say that men are always supposed to act
|
Like they're not really tryin'
|
But when I come on cool nobody seems to notice
|
It's a mystery
|
Yes it's a mystery to me
|
Yes it's a mystery, yes it's a mystery
|
Yes it's a mystery to me
|
You see you win - I lose
|
That's just the way it goes
|
I came into this thing with my heart in a sling
|
I went out with a broken nose
|
|
[Solo]
|
|
You win - I lose
|
I guess that's how we're meant to be
|
I tried as hard as I could but it did me no good
|
You're more than a match for me
|
And it don't make no sense to me, no
|
Love is still a mystery
|
It's just a mystery
|
Love is a mystery
|
