1) The winner takes it all- if you were to play a game such as basketball or poker, and you do a bet, the winner takes it all means the person that win takes all the money of the bids, in this song it is used to express the idea of losing a game and having to give up everything you own, in this case her feelings...
2) The loser stands small- the person that lost is now useless, worthless and defense less compared to the winner.
3) The god may throw a dice- means that iti is destiny there is no one who can make a dice turn out the way they want to .
4) the spectators of the show always staying low- the people who are watching what is happening will not get involved.
great interpretation! I would just add that the winner in the song is the one who "won", or ended up marrying, the man Meryl Streep loved in the movie. And Meryl was the "loser", looking in at someone else's happiness that inherently meant her own sadness. Been there.
