[Verse 1]
Welcome to a trip into my hurt feelings
To the centre of my soul
You better bring a light to find the house of meanings
In the labyrinth of yes or no

[Bridge]
For you, life is just like chess
If you don't make the move
You'll lose the game like this

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you, you're walking on the edge
You, you choose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge I've built for you
It's just one step to start again

[Verse 2]
Welcome to a trip into my emotions
To the language of my heart
You're sailing on a river that becomes an ocean
Which you can only cross with love

[Bridge]
For you, life is just like chess
If you don't make the move
You'll lose the game like this

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you, you're walking on the edge
You, you choose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge I've built for you
It's just one step to start again

[Bridge]
For you, life is just like chess
If you don't make the move
You'll lose the game like this

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you, you're walking on the edge
You, you choose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge I've built for you
It's just one step to start again

[Bridge]
Walking on the edge
Baby, you're walking on the edge

[Chorus 2]
You're walking on the edge
You, you choose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge I've built for you
It's just one step to start again

You, you're walking on the edge
You, you choose the way of love and pain
You, don't you see the bridge I've built for you
It's just one step to start again

[Outro]
On the edge
On the edge
