The winner takes it all

Sarà anche una scena da cartolina ma, secondo me, è una bella cartolina.
Dal musical 'Mamma mia!', la canzone degli Abba 'The winner takes it all':

(molto più bella se si segue il testo)


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 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 the 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?
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 at 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 don't wanna talk / 'cause it makes me feel sad
and I understand / you'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 / the winner takes it all
the game is on again / a lover or a friend
a big thing or a small / the winner takes it all
so the winner takes it all / and the loser has to fall
so the winner takes it all / and the loser has to fall
so the winner takes it all
