I was trying to play a game that I could win
I'm lower than a beggar on his knees
and you'll never see the losing side of me

well I'd ask my friends about you now and then
they told me that you could be back again
but I'm thinking about what wasn't going to be
and you'll never see the losing side of me

the losing side of me just won't be found
and I know that you've been seen running 'round
but I'm crying like the birds up in the trees
and you'll never see the losing side of me

well I wonder if you knew where I had been
I was trying to play a game that I could win
I'm lower than a beggar on his knees
and you'll never see the losing side of me

the losing side of me just won't be found
'cause I know that you've been seen running 'round
but I'm crying like the birds up in the trees
and you'll never see the losing side of me

the losing side of me just won't be found
'cause I know that you've been seen running 'round
but I'm crying like the birds up in the trees
and you'll never see the losing side of me
no you'll never see the losing side of me
no you'll never see the losing side of me
