Winners & Losers (In Conversation)

I was doing my job as a clerk in the city store
I was asking if I could help
But to my greatest surprise came the words of inspiration
From this guy and here is what he said,

Only winners will take the risk at hand
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Losers rather stay on the ground and land
(This is how you will make it out)
If you listen to what I say, you'll go all the way
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Just believe and you can
(This is how you will make it out)

So I smiled and said, “Hey, you're right”
He said, “I know that”
Then his daughter attracted my eyes
He was pulled to the side by his wife
Who had a question of an album she wanted to buy

Only winners will take the risk at hand
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Losers rather stay on the ground and land
(This is how you will make it out)
If you listen to what I say, you'll go all the way
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Just believe and you can
(This is how you will make it out)

I was put in a trance by his words
(I was searching for words to say)
It's as if he knew all that's too learn
(Couldn't think 'cause my mind was blank)
I was put in a trance by his words
(I was searching for words to say)
It's as if he knew all that's too learn

So I took all the words that he said
Put them together
Then I stored them inside of my head

Only winners will take the risk at hand
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Losers rather stay on the ground and land
(This is how you will make it out)
If you listen to what I say, you'll go all the way
(Do you hear what I'm saying, now?)
Just believe and you can
(This is how you will make it out)

I was put in a trance by his words
(I was searching for words to say)
It's as if he knew all that's too learn
(Couldn't think 'cause my mind was blank)
I was put in a trance by his words
(I was searching for words to say)
It's as if he knew all that's too learn
