Lyrics Margo Price – Learning To Lose
Text:
Margo Price:
On the day before the day before the new year
The snow is falling on my prairie home
I’m so far away from where I started
Willie Nelson:
How many trails have I gone down for no reason
Just to learn that I can’t leave myself behind
And the only devil I’ve ever seen was in the mirror
And the only enemy I know is in my mind
Both:
Won’t you tell me how long must I pay off these dues
Won’t you tell me, is winning learning to lose
You said it, oh but say it’s not true
Is winning really learning to lose
Margo Price/Both:
Everywhere that I turn the cards stack against me
And I wonder, was it bad luck or just design
Willie Nelson/Both:
And all the things I’ve had to do without have been a blessing
But sometime a blessing is a curse in disguise
Both:
Won’t you tell me how long must I pay off these dues
Won’t you tell me, is winning learning to lose
You said it, oh but say that it’s not true
Is winning really learning to lose
Is winning really learning to lose
