Jesse McCartney - Checkmate lyrics
[Jesse McCartney - Checkmate lyrics]
Yeah, yeah, oooh oooh yeah, yeah
How would you feel when the
King has gotta lie down
Will you finally see that this is
Something that couldn't work out
You thought that you'd be ready but I
Knew that you always had your doubts
I just wanted to be the one to save you
The one that knew how
But this all would have an ending
That was so clear to see
'Cause you couldn't wrap your
Head around the jealousy
That's why I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
You are gonna lose 'cause you chose
To make the moves you make
Checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make
Said how are you feeling when the
King has gotta lie down?
'Cause you put up a wall around your
Castle and I just can't climb around
I can hear you on the other side of it
Screaming
But, you're too afraid to face the demons
So you let your heart just take a beating
And I'm the one who pays for it
Think I gotta get
That's why I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
You are gonna lose 'cause you chose
To make the moves you make
Checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make
And I don't really wanna do this
Girl it's breaking my heart in two
Yes I'd give anything to keep
On playing here with you
And maybe we can pick these pieces up and
Start again another day when
Things have changed but, you left me with no
Other moves to choose checkmate!
That's why I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
You are gonna lose 'cause you chose
To make the moves you make
Checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make
I ran out of options i ran out of options
How would you feel when the
King has gotta lie down
Will you finally see that this is
Something that couldn't work out
You thought that you'd be ready but I
Knew that you always had your doubts
I just wanted to be the one to save you
The one that knew how
But this all would have an ending
That was so clear to see
'Cause you couldn't wrap your
Head around the jealousy
That's why I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
You are gonna lose 'cause you chose
To make the moves you make
Checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make
Said how are you feeling when the
King has gotta lie down?
'Cause you put up a wall around your
Castle and I just can't climb around
I can hear you on the other side of it
Screaming
But, you're too afraid to face the demons
So you let your heart just take a beating
And I'm the one who pays for it
Think I gotta get
That's why I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
You are gonna lose 'cause you chose
To make the moves you make
Checkmate, checkmate
I'm calling checkmate on you baby
Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make

Oh, I'm calling checkmate, checkmate
Girl you will always lose when you choose
To make the moves you make
I ran out of options i ran out of options
