Quebec Echo - Ace Of Hearts Lyrics

What are the circumstances that will align to lead to you?
I don't get second chances, only my finest luck will do
And if it's looking bleak, I'll wish another week
I'm always dealing in pretence
I couldn't walk away, as if I'm forced to play
Until I make some sense

Why do I keep on checking to see if you are still around?
Why can't I rest a second? Why can't I wait to lay them down?
Maybe there's been a theft, that's left my head bereft
And now I'm shooting for the moon
To whom it may concern, I need to see this turn
You've got to answer soon

Meet me, meet me in the middle
I could make a start
If you feel afraid
Hold me, even for a little
You're the ace of hearts
Every hand you've played
You're the ace of hearts
You've got love in spades

And if it's looking grey, I'll wish another day
I'm always sitting on the fence
I couldn't walk away, as if I'm forced to play
Until I make some sense

Meet me, meet me in the middle
I could make a start
If you feel afraid
Hold me, even for a little
You're the ace of hearts
Every hand you've played
You're the ace of hearts
You've got love in spades
