Lyrics
Yes i played the king of hearts, an i wound up where i started
an i wound up where i started
by the light of thirteen candles
the king of hearts no more
But she laid the ace of spades, put my cards out on the table
but she laid the ace of spades
But she laid the ace of spades, i was lookin for a face Procol, and a woman dressed in black
And tried to understand her, so i wandered through my playing cards, an i wound up where i started
there was trouble in the air
There was trouble in the air, out lookin for a stranger
The king of hearts no more, so i took a chance Hearts, is that too much for you to handle
is that too much for you to handle
The king of hearts no more, by the light of thirteen candles, there was trouble in the air
But the king of the broken-hearted, she promised me the moon
The winner takes it all, so i took a chance
It was right there in my hand, she cut the deck one more Of, is that too much for you to handle
She promised me the moon, she promised me the moon
Put my cards out on the table, an i wound up where i started
Put my cards out on the table, an i wound up where i started, and tried to understand her
well she took me to her room
An i wound up where i started, just a subtle hint of danger
but the king of the broken-hearted
where she offered me a wager
Well she took me to her room, the king of hearts no more, she cut the deck one more
just a subtle hint of danger
She promised me the moon, well she took me to her room, put my cards out on the table
An i wound up where i started, an i wound up where i started Hearts, so i wandered through my playing cards
By the light of thirteen candles, and a woman dressed in black
The king of hearts no more, put my cards out on the table, yes i played the king of hearts
Well she took me to her room, by the light of thirteen candles, and tried to understand her
