William Bell – The House Always Wins lyrics
[Verse 1]
Once I loved a woman
Once we shared a name
But the tide pulled us under
And now we can’t get up again
[Chorus]
Well I wish someone had told me
You’re going to sink before you swim
You make take a couple of rounds
But the house always wins
[Verse 2]
I thought our love would last forever
We would raise a family
But the cards were dealt against us
It was never meant to be
[Chorus]
When love walks out and leaves you
Loneliness steps in
You make take a couple of rounds
But the house always wins
[Bridge]
When I sat down at the table
I was a younger man
I thought I had the whole world
Wrapped up in my hands
[Outro]
I wished someone had told me
You’re going to pay for all of your sins
You can take a couple of rounds
You can take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
But the house, the house, always wins
Once I loved a woman
Once we shared a name
But the tide pulled us under
And now we can’t get up again
[Chorus]
Well I wish someone had told me
You’re going to sink before you swim
You make take a couple of rounds
But the house always wins
[Verse 2]
I thought our love would last forever
We would raise a family
But the cards were dealt against us
It was never meant to be
[Chorus]
When love walks out and leaves you
Loneliness steps in
You make take a couple of rounds
But the house always wins
[Bridge]
When I sat down at the table
I was a younger man
I thought I had the whole world
Wrapped up in my hands
[Outro]
I wished someone had told me
You’re going to pay for all of your sins
You can take a couple of rounds
You can take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
But the house, the house, always wins
