Win Some, Lose Some Lyrics
We didn't think it'd last beyond summer
I met her father she met my mother
We didn't have anywhere else to go
She said to me when we grow older
Will we still need young love on our shoulders?
Does it just fade away?
Will we ever know?
She touched my face and called me her lover
I never thought that I'd need another
Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
I didn't know what we had found
Just caught the bus and rode it to town
She wouldn't notice anything else but me
Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
Dancing at discos
And moaning at phone bills
Torremolinos and sun burnt in high heels
Swap it and sell it
And drop it and smell it
All those years ago
She touched my face and called me her lover
I never thought that I'd need another
Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
Now it's gone (x2)
You win some, you lose some
(x4)
Win some
I met her father she met my mother
We didn't have anywhere else to go
She said to me when we grow older
Will we still need young love on our shoulders?
Does it just fade away?
Will we ever know?
I never thought that I'd need another
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
Just caught the bus and rode it to town
She wouldn't notice anything else but me
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
And moaning at phone bills
Torremolinos and sun burnt in high heels
Swap it and sell it
And drop it and smell it
All those years ago
I never thought that I'd need another
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
You're foolin every one
You win some you lose some
You win some, you lose some

This is about getting carried away with a holiday romance. As soon as the holiday is over, reality sets in and it ends - but it's no big deal, you win some you lose some :)
It's one of those bittersweet Robbie's songs...To me it's about young love, and how sometimes it turns out to be much more than what expected it to be...Remembering those days that went by being an adult...I can sense it, even when it's an uptempo song it touches me, reminds me of those friends that have changed over the years and the innocence and bravery of being young. But "Now it's gone". You realize that it's true, everything has a good and bad side...and even when it might hurt to remember those days they were definitely worth living.
It was written about Nicole Appleton, that's her voice recorded at the beginning saying "I love yoy baby"
