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

(chorus)
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 yes, 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

(chorus)

And 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
