You set your board down, queen in her place, Smilin’ at me with that poker-face, Said, “Boy, you better make your move,” Well, I slid my knight, got somethin’ to prove. You got me cornered, baby, I can’t run, This love’s a game, and you already won, You play that heart like a piece of art, Oh, honey, you checkmate my heart. You move so smooth, like a bishop slide, I’m losin’ ground but I swallow my pride, You wink one eye and the crowd goes wild, Man, this queen’s got the devil’s smile. You got me cornered, baby, I can’t run, This love’s a game, and you already won, You play that heart like a piece of art, Oh, honey, you checkmate my heart. King’s fallin’ down, yeah, my time is done, But I’d lose again just to have your fun, Your lips call mate, I can’t escape, This royal love, there’s no mistake. You got me cornered, baby, I can’t run, This love’s a game, and you already won, You play that heart like a piece of art, Oh, honey, you checkmate my heart. Check-check-checkmate, yeah, my heart...
