Lyrics - You Win -- I Lose by Sayer Leo

Alan
Tarney &
Leo
Sayeryou win --
I losethat's how it all beginswell
I try so hard in these affairs of the heartbut
I know that
I'll never winwell
I talk to you sweet like honeydon't
I treat you as nice as piebut
I can't figure out when you scream and you shoutwhy
I have to apologizeyou win --
I losethat's how it always goes
I came into this thing with my heart in a spin
I went out with a broken noseyou win --
I losethat's how it's meant to bewell
I tried all
I can just to figure it outbut love's just mysteryguess all you ladies would call me easybut
I'm a fool for the femme fatalewhen she flashes those eyes
I'm not a man
I'm a mousetryin' to patch up a broken heartyou win --
I losethat's okay that's the way it goeswell
I tried all
I could but it did me no good'cos all
I've got is nothin' to showthey say that men are always supposed to actlike they're not really tryin'but when
I come on cool nobody seems to noticeit's a mysteryit's a mystery to meyou see 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 goodyou're more than a match for meand it don't make no sense to melove is still a mysteryit's just a mystery
