 Knight Moves
Knight Moves
Watch while the queen
In one false move
Turns herself into a pawn
Sleepy and shaken
And watching whlie the blurry night
Turns into a verry clear dawn
Do you love any, do you love none
Do you love many, can you love one
Do you love me?
Do you love any, do you love none
Do you love twenty, can you love one
Do you love me?
One false move
And a secret prophecy
Well, if you hold it against her
First hold it up and see
That it`s one side stone
One side fire
Standing alon among all men`s desire
(they want to know)
Do you love ...
And if you wonder
What I am doing
As I am heading
For the sink
I am spitting out all the bitterness
Along with half of my last drink
I am thinking
Of your woman
Who is crying in the hall
It`s like drinking gasolinne
To quench a thirst
Until there`s nothing there left at all
Do you love ...
"Walk on her blind side"
Was the answer to the joke
It`s said there isn`t a political bone
In her body
She would rather be a riddle
But she keeps challenging the future
With a profound lack of history
Do you love ...
And watch while the queen
In a false move
Turns herself into a pawn
Sleepy and shaken
And watching while the blurry night
Turns into a very clear dawn
Do you love me?
