The Winner Takes It All

The Winner Takes It All

No white and black 
No right or wrong 
There was only one winner 
And they made it into a classic song .

The bitterest defeat 
From something once so sweet 
Now the good memories disappear
like graffiti on a whitewashed wall

No compromise , The winner took it all .
