"Waterloo" lyrics - ABBA

ABBA
"Waterloo"

My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
oh yeah, and I have met my destiny
in quite a similar way
the history book on the shelf
is always repeating itself

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - knowing my fate is to be with you
Wa, wa, wa, wa, Waterloo - finally facing my Waterloo

My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance
is giving up the fight
and how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - knowing my fate is to be with you
Wa, wa, wa, wa, Waterloo - finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose -

Waterloo - couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - knowing my fate is to be with you
Wa, wa, wa, wa, Waterloo - finally facing my Waterloo
