Your Move
Yu-Gi-Oh! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your move!
It's time to duel and there's no backing down
The heart of the cards is where magic is found
We've played this game before, but never this quite this way
Its like an all out war with monsters that obey

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games
Yu-Gi-Oh!
King of Games

Your move!
Nowhere to turn now the traps have been set
Play that one last surprise, hey it ain't over yet
They've got the upper hand, but that won't last for long
It's time to take a stand and show 'em that youre strong

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games!
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Hey!

Egyptian secrets are revived
Ancient powers have survived
When wrong from right's not black and white
Friends will help to win the fight
Solve the Puzzle's mystery
Unlock a hero's destiny
Now alter egos, no one knows
Side by side they fight their foes

It's time to duel!
These dual identities, they struggle for control
Two personalites inhabiting one soul

It's not a match you're in, it's much more like a brawl
The only way to win, you've got to risk it all

Your move!
It's time to duel and there's no backing down
The heart of the cards is where magic is found
We've played this game before, but never this quite this way
Its like an all out war with monsters that obey

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Hey!

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games
Yu-Gi-Oh!
(Yu-Gi-Oh!)

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yu-Gi-Oh!
He's the King of Games




Yu-Gi-Oh!
Your move!
