You win, I lose 
That's how it all begins 
Well I try so hard in these affairs of the heart 
But I know that I'll never win 

Well I talk to you sweet like honey 
Don't I treat you as nice as pie 
But I can't figure out when you scream and you shout 
Why I have to apologize 

You win, I lose 
That's how it always goes 
I came into this thing with my heart in a spin 
I went out with a broken nose 

You win, I lose 
That's how it's meant to be 
Well I tried all I can just to figure it out 
But love's just mystery 

Guess all you ladies would call me easy 
But I'm a fool for the femme fatale 
When she flashes those eyes I'm not a man I'm a mouse 
Tryin' to patch up a broken heart 

You win, I lose 
That's okay that's the way it goes 
Well I tried all I could but it did me no good 
'Cause all I've got is nothin' to show 

They say that men are always supposed to act 
Like they're not really tryin' 
But when I come on cool nobody seems to notice 
It's a mystery 
It's a mystery to me 

You see you win, I lose 
I guess that's how we're meant to be 
I tried as hard as I could but it did me no good 
You're more than a match for me 
And it don't make no sense to me 
Love is still a mystery 
It's just a mystery
