Bassey, Shirley - Born To Lose Lyrics






Born to lose
Born to lose the game
Born to cry
When I hear you're near
Born to smile
Through a mist of tears
Born to live
Lost in lonely years
Born to lose
Every game I play
You must go
There's no other way
Touch my life
With your love once more
It must last
Till forever more
Take my love
Take my life, my soul
Take my dreams
Take my word, my own
Would I change Could I only choose
No not me
I was born to lose
Take my love
Take my life, my soul
Take my dreams
Take my word, my own
Would I change
Could I only choose
No not me
I was born to lose
Take my love
Take my life, my soul
Take my dreams
Take my word, my own
Would I change
Could I only choose
No not me I was born to lose
Take my love Take my life, my soul
Take my dreams Take my word, my own

    Shirley is absolutely wonderful...always..

  16. s.... t....

    most singers lose the power but SHIRLEY LOVE LOVE LOVE

  17. S.... ....

    As much as I love Shirley, I don't like this concert. She appears to be struggling vocally and that is something I would rarely say about her.

    S.... ....

    This is one of the first full concerts that Shirley gave after the death of her daughter. It took her two years to get to this point where she could perform a full concert. She attempted to come back earlier than this, but that was not a good idea, as she basically lost her voice. She went out on stage in Australia, and couldn't sing a note. With rest and recuperation, AND with the help of a classical soprano to show her where she was singing improperly, she was able to get her voice back. But, even at partial vocal strength, she still is better than most of the rest...

  18. E.... V....

    Simplemente fantastica que gran voz

  19. M.... S....

    makes me cry. Absolutely stunning!!!

  20. e.... m....

    A masterful performance

    I hope when Shirley's day comes it will be these wonderful pieces that get played rather than the Bond themes

  22. A.... W....

    very good, no better than that.

    Simone: Check out Shirley's 1979 performance of this song; she performed it on her TV Show. It's also a stunner, both vocally and Bassey's stage presence is second to NONE! Unlike many of the vocalists of today, Shirley can simply stand at the mic and mesmerize her audience.

    Breathtakingly magnificent...! My absolute favourite Bassey song. I come back to this quite often...for such a sad song, something about it makes my soul rise. How lucky are we to have lived in the time of legends like, Ms Bassey, Sinatra, Dean Martin, Doris Day, Ella Fitzgerald, Tom Jones, Elvis, Engelbert Humperdinck, Andy Williams, Etta James, just to name a few...❤️💞❤️💖❤️

  82. G.... B....

    Love this song oh can so relate to it

  83. S.... C....

    Espectacular nadie como ella es fantástica

  84. a.... b....

    Una cantante così (intendo dire di questo valore vocale assoluto) in Italia non l'abbiamo mai avuta, nemmeno Mina e Milva sono al suo livello. Forse la sola, grandissima, Caterina Valente. e prima di lei Jula de Palma, anche se di genere molto diverso.

    "Born To Lose"
    Born to lose
    Born to lose the game
    Born to cry
    When I hear you're near
    Born to smile
    Through a mist of tears
    Born to live
    Lost in lonely years
    Born to lose
    Every game I play
    You must go
    There's no other way
    Touch my life
    With your love once more
    It must last
    Till forever more
    Take my love
    Take my life, my soul
    Take my dreams
    Take my word, my own
    Would I change Could I only choose
    No not me
    I was born to loose
    Take my love
    Take my life, my soul

    that's hard.

    I have loved Shirley Bassey for as long as I can remember. She's unique and has a wonderful voice, which she dominates to perfection.
    Today, I heard Dorothy Squires.
    Now I know something that I didn't know before.

  88. S.... ....

    She's amazing !

  89. N.... J....

    She is what she is! Diva in her own right and in my opinion out does Barbra Streisand when it comes to so much emotion and you can really feel it when she's happy and/or sad! I could slow dance to this! Bravo Shirley I'm glad my dad introduced me to her way back in the 70s. I have perfect pitch and I'm sure as she is singing this bittersweet song there isn't a dry eye in the house.

  90. P.... C....

    indid, the greatest Diva I have ever heard, wonder why de has never been recongnice in this part of the world.

  91. M.... N....

    I wish I was in Berlin in 1987. Fantastic performance

  92. A.... S....

    Um dos melhores concertos ....bela, sensual, divertida com uma voz poderosa. ! perfeita!!!

  95. I.... ....

    I recall this at the Royal Festival Hall on year...   greatly moved the audience  and here in Berlin with the great Peter Tomasso conducting

  96. M.... C....

    How could that audience stay in their seats, after such a heart-felt beautiful performance? Strictly a "Standing Ovation" Performance!!! Not forgetting the beautifully. orchestra/Violins...

    M.... C....

    Agree totally....I would haven out of my chair faster than a jack in the box. Breathtaking performance.

    M.... C....

    I play this over and over again, and I always wonder the very same thing! Shirley's voice is totally breathtaking, I would find it very hard to stay controlled after hearing her sing live <3 Oh, yes, and the orchestra - WOW!

    M.... C....

    You are so right, how could they?????
