Chess - Hudson Thames

It’s amazin' the way you can change me

From so far away

I miss you more now that I know you’re happy

Isn’t that cliche?

You make me feel like I conquered Goliath

In an ancient Rome

But, God, I love how I use this piano

Now that I’m alone

'Cause I’ve been dancin' in this room by myself

I’ve been playin' games of chess with my health

I’ve been missin' you, if you couldn’t tell

I’m here to tell you that I made up my mind

I took everything and you took your time

But I miss the way that life looks inside of your eyes

I’ve been waitin' here for you, tonight

You’re the reason I stare at the ceilin'

When I’m all alone

'Tis the season and I quit the drinkin'

Will you come back home?

I’ve fought with angels and seen every angle

Of the setting sun

But if every time that I hear Blackbird, I lose it

Maybe you’re the one

'Cause I’ve been dancin' in this room by myself

I’ve been playin' games of chess with my health

I’ve been missin' you, if you couldn’t tell

I’m here to tell you that I made up my mind

I took everything and you took your time

But I miss the way that life looks inside of your eyes

I’ve been waitin' here for you, tonight

I’ve been waitin' here for you, tonight

Waitin' here for you

Dreams

Are tearin' at the seams

I’m lost in what it means

Keep tellin' me

It all gets better

Time has thrown me to the tide

I’m flawed if by design

Keep tellin' me

It all gets better

And time has thrown me to the tide

I’m flawed if by design

Keep tellin' me

It all gets better

'Cause I miss the way that life looks inside of your eyes
