"Nobody Wins" lyrics

"Nobody Wins"
(originally by Radney Foster)

You said this ain't over yet
I've said things that I regret
Won't be easy to forget
Scars take time to heal
Before another bitter word gets loose
I was hoping we could call a truce

Nobody wins, we both lose
Hearts get broken and love gets bruised
When we light that same old fuse
Again and again
Nobody wins slamming doors
We both lost this fight before
And I won't play that game no more
Nobody wins

Darlin' we've got too much pride
It don't matter who's wrong or right
Honey, love ain't black and white
It's the way I feel about you
All I wanna do is hold you tight
I can't take another angry night

Nobody wins, we both lose
Hearts get broken and love gets bruised
When we light that same old fuse
Again and again
Nobody wins slamming doors
We both lost this fight before
And I won't play that game no more
Nobody wins

I know something's bound to break if we don't bend
Baby, what's it gonna take?

Nobody wins, we both lose
Hearts get broken and love gets bruised
When we light that same old fuse
Again and again
Nobody wins slamming doors
We both lost this fight before
And I won't play that game no more
Nobody wins

Nobody wins
Nobody wins
Nobody wins (Nobody wins)
