Lyrics
The losing game
Losing and lost in a shadow land
forgotten where the sun is almost gone
you're waiting for somebody to take your hand
you're so alone
When you're talking about the faces you left behind
when you're talking about the places you have been
there is always a bitterness deep in your mind
you never win ...
There is a chance to win the losing-game
life is rolling on and on
there is so much time to catch the train
before it's gone but dont remain in your losing-game
Losing and lost in the pouring rain
forgotten where dreams are almost gone
you're looking for somebody to share your pain
so far from home
Darkness is covering the brightest day
and smiling seems to be a sin
you were born to lose so you say
and you never win ...
Take the chance to win the losing-game ....
