14 You Win Again
Bob Dylan & Willie Nelson Lyrics

The song "You win again" is a heartfelt ballad by Bob Dylan about a man who is unable to leave his lover, even though he knows that she has been unfaithful. The singer is aware that the news of his lover's infidelity is spreading all over town, but he just can't bring himself to break free from the relationship. He admits that everyone else seemed to know about his lover's cheating ways, except for him, as he chose to trust her despite the warning signs. The singer also acknowledges that he is not the only victim of his lover's heartless actions, hinting that other men are bound to be deceived by her as well.

However, even as he comes to terms with his situation, the singer's love for his unfaithful partner remains unfading. He confesses that although she has no heart and no shame and takes true love for granted, he still loves her and cannot complain. This is the sad reality of a toxic relationship, where one person is willing to overlook everything negative about their partner, just to hold onto the love they have for them.

The lyrics of "You win again" evoke emotions of despair, resignation and hopelessness, as the singer finally accepts that his love for his unfaithful partner is misplaced. The use of vivid imagery helps to create a strong atmosphere of melancholy and wistfulness.
