Why  did you have to take  my heart  and break  it?
Why  did you run away  with someone new?
Everybody  knows I'm strong,  but I just can't take  it..
cause  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
If  I were a king  and I lost  my riches.
I  know that it would break  my heart  in two.
Now  my heart's in little  bitty pieces..
cause  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
Many  people lose,  some are winners.
 So, I'm  left to face  this world alone.
This  is not a game  for beginners..
 but you  were the very first love I've ever known.
 I know  I shouldn't let  you see  me crying.
But  I feel so bad that I don't  know what  to do.
 I guess  I'll hide my tears  and keep on trying..
cause  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
 (INTERLUDE:)

cause  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
Yes,  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
Well,  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you.
Yes,  I'm a poor loser when it comes  to losing you..(Fade.)
