From a Jack to a King


From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding ring
I played an Ace
And I won a Queen
And walked away with your heart

From a jack to a king
With no regrets
I stacked the cards last night
And Lady Luck
Played her hand just right
To make me king of your heart

For just a little while I thought
That I might lose the game
Then just in time I saw
The twinkle in your eye

From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding ring
I played an Ace
And I won a Queen
You made me king of your heart
For just a little while
