Losin’ In Las Vegas
I'm losin' in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losin' is you
My dreams of winnin' all your love
Just don't stand a chance of comin' true
I'm living in this glitter town
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
I thought I'd finally won a hand
Then everything I planned fell on through
We shied away from the lights
Spent some warm and tender nights in this desert town
We made some friends here
And I thought you would want to settle down
But you said you had to leave
You really felt the need for a change in your life
Now I'm standin' here holdin' back the tears
As you haul out of sight
Losin' in Las Vegas
The only thing I'm losin' is you
My dreams of winnin' all your love
Just don't stand a chance of comin' true
I'm living in this glitter town
But there ain't nobody got me down but you
Here, I thought I'd finally won a hand
But everything I planned fell on through
Oh, but you said you had to leave
You really felt the need for a change in your life
Now I'm standin' here holdin' back the tears
As you haul out of sight
Oh, I'm losin' in Las Vegas
But the only thing I'm losing is you
