Neil Diamond
Win the World
I never noticed when you changed your hair
Just another of those moments
I was only half there
When you wore that red dress
That was cut up to here
I never noticed
You were wearing a tear
I was always tryin' to win the world
What on earth was I thinking of?
One time too often
I didn't hold you enough
I was always tryin' to win the world
But somewhere I lost you
I never saw you
Only tryin' to win my love
It should have been me there
For all of those times
It would have been me there
If I knew the signs
When you wore that red dress
How could I know then
You'd wear it for me once
And never wear it again?
I was always tryin' to win the world
What on earth was I thinking of?
One time too often
I didn't hold you enough
I was always tryin' to win the world
But somewhere I lost you
'Cause I never saw you
Only tryin' to win my love
Somewhere I lost you
'Cause I never saw you
Only tryin' to win my love
