Verse 1

Midnight, I'm a-waiting on the 1205

Hoping it'll take me just a little farther down the line

Moonlight, you're just a heartache in disguise

Won't you keep my heart from breaking

If it's only for a very short time

Chorus

Playing with the Queen of Hearts, knowing it ain't really smart

The joker ain't the only fool, who'll do anything for you

Laying out another lie, thinking about a life of crime

That's what I'll have to do, to keep me away from you

Verse 2

Baby, it makes me feel so bad

Why is everybody telling everybody what you have done

And baby, I know it makes you sad

But when they're handing out the heartaches

You know you got to have you some

Chorus

Verse 3

Lovers, I know you've had a few

You hide your heart beneath the covers

And you tell 'em they're the only one

And others know what I'm going through

It's so hard to be a lover

When you say you only do it for fun

Chorus
