Video clip

There was trouble in the air
Just a subtle hint of danger
And a woman dressed in black
Out lookin' for a stranger

She took me to her room
Where she offered me a wager
She promised me the moon
So i took a chance

Yes, i played the king of hearts
Put my cards out on the table
I thought the odds were in my favor
But she laid the ace of spades
An' i wound up where i started
The king of hearts no more
But the king of the broken-hearted

She cut the deck once more
By the light of thirteen candles
She said, "the winner takes it all
Is that too much for you to handle?"

So i wandered through my playing cards
And tried to understand her
I was lookin' for a face
It was right there in my hand

Yes, i played the king of hearts
Put my cards out on the table
I thought the odds were in my favor
But she laid the ace of spades
An' i wound up where i started
The king of hearts no more
But the king of the broken-hearted

I played the king of hearts
Put my cards out on the table
I thought the odds were in my favor
But she laid the ace of spades
An' i wound up where i started
The king of hearts no more
But the king of the broken-hearted
