Once I was glad Always happy, never sad And every day Seemed like Sunday And although things were slow And never seemed to have no dough Somehow I never once got lonely Ya see the fact is more or less You're gamblin' with your own happiness And most all your would be friends Turn out so phony Oh, but times they change and rearrange And I'll sing to the Queen of Hearts Don't know where to start Or how to stop And after things have come and gone Left me feelin' that I've done so wrong Oh, I've wasted so much time Feelin' guilty And as I watch you sit across the room Beautiful as the flowers bloom T'leave it lay just one day Oh, brother you're gonna come back to find it gone I love you Queen of Hearts Tell me not to stop Just tell me where to start Where now baby, tell me where to start And after all that we've been through I find that when I think of you A warm soft wind runs through and through And in my heart there's only you And I will always keep on trying To gather this strange piece of mind Without it there'd be lonely me and Oh, darlin' lonely you I love you Queen of Hearts Don't tell me when to stop Tell me when to start Tell now baby Tell me when to start
