SANTANA lyrics - Winning

(Leo Ballard)



One day I was on the ground

When I needed a hand

And it couldn't be found

I was so far down

That I couldn't get up

You know and

One day I was one of life's losers

Even my friends were my ac-cus-ers

And in my head

Lost before I'd begun



I had a dream

But it turned to dust

What I thought was love

That must have been lust

I was living in style

When the walls fell in

When I played my hand

I looked like a joker

Turn around

Fate must have woke her

'Cause lady luck she was

Waiting outside the door



Chorus:



I'm winning

I'm winning

I'm winning

And I don't intend on losing again



Too bad it belonged to me

It was the wrong time

And I meant to be

It took a long time

And I knew for now

I can see the day

That I breath for

Friends agree there's a need

To play the game

And to win again



Chorus:

(repeat first line 5x's)

(repeat last line 4x's)



Repeat Verse II



Chorus:

(repeat first line 5x's)
