Bill Champlin, Joseph Williams and Peter Friestedt - Sometimes You Win

Quarter after two, staring at my shoes
Like i'm searching for some kind of sign
Empty one more glass to wash away the past
And savor the sting of goodbye

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
But, it's hard to give in to the cold hearted truth
That we had it all, now all we had is through

Pages, torn apart, sealed inside a jar
Like i'm try'n' to imprison the pain
I'm jack without a jill, a sky without a star
I'll never be the same

It's hard to walk away
When there's still one card to play
And the odds are a million to one
Lady luck's a dance hall queen,
She can pick your pockets clean,
Love is something you can't count oncause

I refuse to give in to the cold hearted truth,
that we had it all,
Now all we had is through
(Ad lib) i refuse to believe it
