Rook takes knight, knight takes pawn
Let the game begin
Your only move, a quick retreat
Because I won't give in

I'll hold you at arms length
Though I'll never show my strength

I am king, you are queen
There's a space in between
I am here you are there
It's our love I declare

You're the day in my night
I stand on black, you stand on white
And there's a move I will take
It's our love that's at stake
It's a game, it's a game
Now can't you see that you've been overthrown
Your defense has gone and you stand all alone
I'll hold you in my sight, it's your surrender I'll invite

Should I captivate or abdicate
Should I calculate [bad word] 
Should I concentrate or formulate
Or anticipate a stalemate
One final move, checkmate

I am king, you are queen
There's a space in between
I am here you are there
It's our love I declare
