Love Is a Losing Game Lyrics

(originally by Amy Winehouse)

For you I was a flame
Five story fire as you came

One I wish I never played
Oh what a mess we made
And now the final frame

Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand

Self professed... profound
Till the chips were down
...know you're a gambling man
Love, love is a losing hand

Though I battle blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love, love is a fate resigned

Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
