Once I was glad
Always happy, never sad
And every day
Seemed like Sunday

And although things were slow
And never seemed to have no dough
Somehow
I never once got lonely

Ya see the fact is more or less
You're gamblin' with your own happiness
And most all your would be friends
Turn out so phony

Oh, but times they change and rearrange
And I'll sing to the Queen of Hearts
Don't know where to start
Or how to stop

And after things have come and gone
Left me feelin' that I've done so wrong
Oh, I've wasted so much time
Feelin' guilty

And as I watch you sit across the room
T'leave it lay just one day
Oh, brother you're gonna come back to find it gone

I love you Queen of Hearts
Tell me not to stop
Just tell me where to start
Where now baby, tell me where to start

And after all that we've been through
I find that when I think of you
A warm soft wind runs through and through
And in my heart there's only you

And I will always keep on trying
To gather this strange piece of mind
Without it there'd be lonely me and
Oh, darlin' lonely you

I love you Queen of Hearts
Don't tell me when to stop
Tell me when to start
Tell now baby
Tell me when to start
