Waterloo (Top of the Pops performance II, BBC) Songtext
von ABBA

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 forever 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 forever 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...
