Lyrics

Queen of Hearts

Verse 1
Better believe you can make it alone though it’s so hard to do
You’d better believe that the sun will shine, no matter what life does to you
Time is a healer, tomorrow can wait, nothing will pass you by
Let life be your dealer. New cards your fate. No reason to sit and cry

Verse 2
I remember you from long ago. You turned every head in the room
It seemed like you had it all - undisputed Queen of Cool
But life is strange. Things change. King of Diamonds played you for a fool
Look again at your hand. Not what you planned. Need the Joker to pull you through

Chorus 1
One step forwards. Two steps back. That used to be your way
Call their bluff cos you’ve had enough and live for today
You may hold the Queen of Hearts. Now you gotta shuffle and choose…
…brand new cards. It’s not that hard. You don’t have to lose

Bridge
Cos life doesn’t deal you the perfect hand. Make the best of what is there
Hold back your best cards Until the end. Show that you don’t care

Verse 3
You’d better believe you can make it alone though it’s so hard to do
You’d better believe that the sun will shine no matter what life does to you
Whatever happens I’ll be by your side. Any way you want me to be
But I know you can do whatever it takes to win and set yourself free

Chorus2
So it’s two steps forward, don’t look back. The dawning of a new day
A new direction, a better connection, old cards thrown away
You are still the Queen of Hearts - that’s what they’ll always say
Cos you’re more than the sum of the parts of the person I knew yesterday

Outro
Whatever happens I’ll be by your side. Any way you want me to be
But I know you can do whatever it takes to win and set yourself free
