Queen Of Hearts Lyrics By Juice Newton

    midnight and i’m awaiting on the twelveohfive
    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 time

    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 ’bout a life of crime
    ’cause that’s what i’ll have to do
    to keep me away from you

    honey you know it makes you mad
    why is everybody telling everybody what you have done
    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 ’bout a life of crime
    ’cause that’s what i’ll have to do
    to keep me away from you

    lovers i know you’ve had a few
    but hide your heart beneath the covers
    and tell ’em they’re the only one
    and others they know just what i’m goin’ through
    and it’s ahard to be a lover
    when you say you’re only in 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

    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 ’bout a life of crime
    ’cause that’s what i’ll have to do
    to keep me away from you

    playing with the queen of hearts
    playing with the queen of hearts
    playing with the queen of hearts
    playing with the queen of hearts
