Queen of Hearts Rodney Crowell

[Verse 1]
Midnight and I'm waiting on the twelve-oh-five
Hoping it'll take me just a little farther down the line
Moonlight, is just a heartache in disguise
Why don't you keep my heart from breaking, if it's only for a very short time

[Chorus]
I've been playing with the queen of hearts, a-knowing it ain't really smart
The joker ain't the only fool to do anything to you
I've been laying out another lie, a-thinking 'bout a life of crime
'Cause that's what I have to do to keep me away from you

[Verse 2]
Baby, yeah, you know it makes me sad
So why is everybody telling everybody what you have done?
Baby, yeah, I know it makes you mad
But when they're handing out the heartache, babe you ought to grab you one

[Chorus]
I've been playing with the queen of hearts, knowing it ain't really smart
The joker ain't the only fool to do anything to you
I've been laying out another lie, a-thinking 'bout a life of crime
'Cause that's what I have to do to keep me away from you
I want to keep me away from you
