Song | Nobody Wins |
Artist | Elton John |
Album | Nobody Wins |
Written:Jean-Paul Dreau/Gary Osborne | |
They must have loved each other once | |
But that was many years ago | |
And by the time I came along | |
Things were already going wrong | |
I felt the pain in their pretence | |
The side they tried hard not to show | |
But through the simple eyes of youth | |
It wasn't hard to see the truth | |
And in the end nobody wins | |
When love begins to fall apart | |
And it's the innocent who pay | |
When broken dreams get in the way | |
The game begins, the game nobody wins | |
They must have loved each other once | |
Before the magic slipped away | |
And as their life became a lie | |
What love remained began to die | |
I used to hide beneath the sheets | |
I prayed that time would find a way | |
But with the passing of the years | |
I watched as laughter turned to tears | |
We used to love each other once | |
With all the passion we possessed | |
But people change as time goes by | |
Some feelings grow while others die | |
But if we learn from what we see | |
And face the truth while we still can | |
Then though the passion may be gone | |
Some kind of love can still live on |
