Defeated, defeated
Defeated i've been
Defeated, defeated
I didn't win your love

I've played the game, my love was true
But just the same, i still love you

Defeated, defeated
Now i know the score
Defeated, defeated
Yet i love you even more

My opponent was lucky, didn't even try
Guess i'm a bad loser, that is why i cry
The game was fun, but oh, how i know
I should have won, i need you so

Defeated, defeated
The game is through
I've been defeated
But i'm still in love with you
