Queen Of Hearts Lyrics - Repeat When Necessary - Dave Edmunds

Midnight, I'm a-waiting on the 1205 

Hoping it'll take me just a little farther down the line 

Moonlight, you're just a heartache in disguise 

Won't you keep my heart from breaking 

If it's only for a very short 

Playing with the Queen of Hearts knowing it ain't really smart 

The joker ain't the only fool who'll do anything for you 

Laying out another lie, thinking about a life of crime 

That's what I'll have to do to keep me away from you 

Baby, it makes me feel so bad 

Why is everybody telling everybody what you have done 

And baby, I know it makes you sad 

But when they're handing out the heartaches 

You know you got to have you some 

Playing with the Queen of Hearts knowing it ain't really smart 

The joker ain't the only fool who'll do anything for you 

Laying out another lie, thinking about a life of crime 

That's what I'll have to do to keep me away from you 

Lovers, I know you've had a few 

You hide your heart beneath the covers 

And you tell 'em they're the only one 

And others know what I'm going through 

It's so hard to be a lover 

When you say you only do it for fun 

Playing with the Queen of Hearts knowing it ain't really smart 

The joker ain't the only fool who'll do anything for you 

Laying out another lie, thinking about a life of crime 

That's what I'll have to do to keep me away from you 

To keep me away from you 

To keep me away from you
