Lyrics

From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding ring
I've played an ace and I won the queen
I walked away with your heart
From a jack to a king
With no regrets I stacked, I stacked the cards
I stacked the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
You made me king of your heart
Oh, for just a little while
I thought that I might lose the game
Oh, but just in time I saw that twinkle in your eyes
From a jack to a king
Of loneliness to wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and I won the queen
You made me king of your heart
La-da-da-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-da-da-la-la
La-la-la-la
Oh, for just a little while
I thought that I might lose the game
Oh, but just in time
I saw, I saw that twinkle in your eyes
From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and I won the queen
You made me king of your heart
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
