Checkmate

[Verse 1] Passage is marking time We make out, this is the way we are Looking into each other's eyes How can we be so apart? And I have a sort it's feeling this way Never thought we'd be so far off track And I know there's never one to blame And we've gone too far to turn back [Chorus] It was so easy at the start Keeping those secrets from my heart Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it And now it all seems so black and white And there's no way to make it right Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it now [Verse 2] Look at a strip teal wall Sinking below the grass How can we let it go so easy Give it our very best We thought that it would be so different Always promised to avoid the black And I know there's never one to blame And we've gone too far to turn back [Chorus] It was so easy at the start Keeping those secrets from my heart Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it And now it all seems so black and white And there's no way to make it right Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it now [Verse 3] Getting tired to fall I think we're getting closer We touch But I start sinking We've been playing games too long I think that this could be the end Of our love [Bridge] It was so easy at the start Keeping those secrets from my heart Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate And now it all seems so black and white And there's no way to make it right Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate [Chorus] It was so easy at the start Keeping those secrets from my heart Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it And now it all seems so black and white And there's no way to make it right Ohh Ahh Ahh It's a checkmate We just don't know it now
