Queen Of Hearts - The Unthanks

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

Here today gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

Here today gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do

If I had store in yonder mountain

With gold and silver there for counting

I could not count for the thought of thee

My eyes so full I could not see

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

Here today gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do

I love my father I love my mother

I love my sister I love my brother

I love my friends and my family too

I'll forsake them all and go with you

To the queen of hearts is the ace of sorrow

Here today gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do
