| It was late after midnight
|
| I was sitting in a tavern
|
| I saw him playing cards
|
| And I went over to the old man
|
| He said: "I read inside the cards
|
| All about your life
|
| Do you want to know it?
|
| So listen to me"
|
| The Queen of Hearts
|
| The Queen of Hearts knows about life
|
| She knows all about the heartache
|
| Of the lovers in the night
|
| Can't you try to read the signs?
|
| The Queen of Hearts
|
| The Queen of Hearts knows about fate
|
| And the Queen of Hearts, she's telling me:
|
| "Run home to your love
|
| Run before it is too late"
|
| He shuffled all his cards
|
| And then he started dealing
|
| The Jack of Clubs, then Queen of Hearts
|
| I didn't know the meaning
|
| He said: "You'll lose your lover"
|
| I did not believe a word
|
| But when I got back home
|
| My baby was gone
|
| The Queen of Hearts
|
| The Queen of Hearts knows about life
|
| She knows all about the heartache
|
| Of the lovers in the night
|
| Can't you try to read the signs?
|
| The Queen of Hearts
|
| The Queen of Hearts knows about fate
|
| And the Queen of Hearts, she's telling me:
|
| "Run home to your love
|
| Run before it is too late"
|
