[Verse 1]
Oh, when I first laid eyes on you
I felt like my spaceship would sink right into a black hole
Mischievously gazing right into my soul
You embodied the spirit of love
Caress my soft cheeks with your hands
Distract me from all the injustice of the universe
I can’t bear the thought of being near you
But not being able to truly confess
This feels like a strange game of chess
[Chorus]
Oh I can't stand the fear of losing you
This feels like a strange game of chess
[Verse 2]
So now you’re picking my heart strings
Exploiting my passion for love and my faith in our fling
This feels like a path leading to my demise
As I’m nothing without your respect
This story goes only one way
I’m drowning in love currents that I can't seem to suppress
I crave your attention, devotion and zeal
Yet your heart’s buried deep underground
This feels like a strange game of chess
[Chorus]
Oh I can't stand the fear of losing you
This feels like a strange game of chess
[Bridge]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
