Lyrics 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
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
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
Waterloo — finally facing my Waterloo

Waterloo — knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo — finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo — knowing my fate is to be with you
