"Born To Lose" lyrics

"Born To Lose"
(originally by Shirley Bassey)

Born to lose, born to lose the game
Born to cry, when I hear you're near
Born to smile through a mist of tears
Born to live, lost in lonely years
Born to lose every game I play
You must go, there's no other way
Touch my life with your love once more
It must last till forevermore
Take my love, take my life, my soul
Take my dreams, take my word, my own
Could I change? Could I only choose?
No, no, not me
I was born to lose
