Why am I about to lose?

[intro]

[verse]
I can see it clearly now,
I'm about to lose somehow.
Is it my fault, is it yours?
I'm losing you without a cause.

[bridge]
I never had some luck before,
(oh-oh-ooh-ho) that's for sure,
I'll never find a girl like you,
again, I don't know what to do.
(ooh)

[chorus]
Why am I about to lose,
do I always get the blues?
Can you tell me what went wrong,
can you tell me what you want,
did you ever miss a thing?
A precious gift, a diamond ring?
Or is it just the way I am?
(Ooh, god knows), I'm just a man.

[instrumental]

[bridge]
How can I keep you satisfied?
(Ooh) Anything I never tried?
A bed of roses, a glass of wine?
Can't you give me some more time?
(ooh)

[chorus]
Why am I about to lose,
do I always get the blues?
Can you tell me what went wrong,
can you tell me what you want,
did you ever miss a thing?
A precious gift, a diamond ring?
Or is it just the way I am?
(Ooh, god knows), I'm just a man.

[instrumental]

[bridge]
Why can't you give me (ooh)
Can't you give me some more time?
(ooh)

[chorus]
Why am I about to lose,
do I always get the blues?
Can you tell me what went wrong,
can you tell me what you want,
did you ever miss a thing?
A precious gift, a diamond ring?
Or is it just the way I am?
(Ooh, god knows), I'm just a man.
