I've been watching from a distance
Where your light begins to fade
You've got a heart that shines so brightly
But you're lost in your own shade
Every step you take it pulls me
Deeper in this quiet storm
I'm aching just to hold you, love
And keep you safe and warm
But here I stand invisible
Like a shadow on the wall
Praying for the moment
When you see me after all
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
Though we're in different worlds
I've known it from the start
If you'd only take my hand
We could rewrite the stars
I'd be your king of spades
If you'd be my queen of hearts
So let me close the distance
Let me show you who I am
I've been waiting in the silence
Hoping you'd understand
If you'd only let me in
I'd love you endlessly
I'd be everything you need
If you'd just believe in me
I'm not just a dreamer
I know where to start
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
I've been tracing every moment
Every word you've ever said
In my mind it's like a movie
Where I play the love you've never met
You're the song I've been afraid to sing
The hope I can't release
But I'll stand here waiting for you
Until I find my peace
If only you could see the man
Behind these hidden scars
You'd find a love that's written
Deep within the stars
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
Though we're in different worlds
I've known it from the start
If you'd only take my hand
We could rewrite the stars
I'd be your king of spades
If you'd be my queen of hearts
So let me close the distance
Let me show you who I am
I've been waiting in the silence
Hoping you'd understand
If you'd only let me in
I'd love you endlessly
I'd be everything you need
If you'd just believe in me
I'm not just a dreamer
I know where to start
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
I'd climb the tallest mountain
I'd swim the deepest sea
There's no force on earth
That could keep you away from me
You're the reason that I'm standing here
Pouring out my soul
With every beat
You're the rhythm making me feel whole
So let me close the distance
Let me show you who I am
I've been waiting in the silence
Hoping you'd understand
If you'd only let me in
I'd love you endlessly
I'd be everything you need
If you'd just believe in me
I'm not just a dreamer
I know where to start
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
I am a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
We're two souls waiting for the moment
We won't be apart
Take my hand and feel the magic
Let this love impart
For I'm a king of spades
And you're my queen of hearts
