Joan Baez - Queen of Hearts lyrics

rate me

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

He's here today, he's gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do?

Had I the store in yonder mountain

Where gold and silver is there for counting

I could not count for thought of thee

My eyes so full I could not see

I love my father, I love my mother

I love my sister, I love my brother

I love my friends and relatives too

I'll forsake them all and go with you

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

He's here today, he's gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do ?
