Ace Of Hearts Lyrics

Could this be true
Could this be me
The one who kept himself so high and free
Caught up in the highest game of all
And all my defences tumble and fall
Only the ace of hearts can save now

I wake in early hours and call your name
It's your face I see pressed up against my window pane
And suddenly I realise
As the tears start to fall like rain from the sky
Only the ace of hearts can save me now
Said only the ace of hearts can save me now

Ace of hearts tell me what's this game we're playing
Ace of hearts it's all down to you
I'm lost, lost like a child in a strange dream
Open your doors and pull me
Pull me trough

And I'm flying like the wind in the dead of night
Flying so high searching for those landing lights
I've never been this high before
But darling all I need is your love more and more
And only the ace of hearts can save me now

Cover art for Ace Of Hearts lyrics by Chris Rea

This song is about a guy who falls in love. He's always avoided commitment in the past and distanced himself from things. Now his defences have fallen and he can't believe that he's fallen for somebody.

He keeps waking up and thinking about her, and realising that he's hooked on her and that "only the ace of hearts" can save him.

He's then thinking about life and what it means, and what she means to him. In the last verse he's thinking about how happy she has made him - happier than he has ever been before, and he feels that having her love he's got everything.
