Queen of Hearts Blues
The queen of hearts she ain't smiling no more
She's got her head the clouds, she won't be comin' round no more
With a crook in her neck and a chip on her shoulder
Love didn't suit her taste
She caught a glimpse of the blues and she took off runnin'
It all seems such a waste
I would keep you if I could
I would stick around if I could
I was a name on a page I was a fix for a phase
A muse for a writer's block
A story told of a foregone failure
Heard the click and felt the shot
I would keep you if I could
I would stick around if I could
Nothing seems more unstable then these trees swingin' around next to me
I caught sight of the blues on a warm December night
It was laced in between the words of the coldest line
It said I would keep you if I could
It said I would stick around if I could
