Lyrics Win or Lose - Earth, Wind & Fire

Win or Lose

I know that I’m afraid of live
The tolls seems very steep
Your goals so uncontrollable
Impossible to keep
Despite the songs of lucky ones
Those very special few
Can’t right the wrongs that often come
No matter what we do
I imagine that the feeling’s close to none
All that passion running rampant sounds like fun
But when the trouble starts
I’ve heard of broken hearts
A hackneyed phrase-but one that I suspect is true
And so I wonder will I win or will I lose
Most come down, familiar ground a safer veiw
No more concerned with if they win or if they lose
The journey must be made
The hand is dealt, it must be played
It comes to all of us, we can’t escape our dues
But I’m still holding back
I want my heart intact
Until the time that I’m unable to refuse
Inconsequential if I stumble up the rocks
or catapulted if I shoot right to the top
When I on love depend
My only question then
…is will I lose or will I win
So I wonder, yes I wonder
