The Queen of Hearts - Offa Rex

To the queen of hearts, he’s the ace of sorrow

He’s here today, and he’s gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do?

Had I the store in yonder mountain

Where gold and silver is had for counting

I would not count for the heart of thee

Mine eyes so full I could not see

My father left me both house and land

And servants many at my command

At my command, they ne’er shall be

I’ll forsake them all and go with thee

To the queen of hearts, he’s the ace of sorrow

He’s here today and he’s gone tomorrow

Young men are plenty but sweethearts few

If my love leaves me what shall I do?
