Subject: General

The King of Hearts went riding through an English green
And I loved him from the start as if flights of angels I'd seen
He was wonderous, fair and wild, kindred spirit, kindred child,
And he asked me if I'd go and be his lady-o.

"If I go along with you, your Queen of Hearts to be
I've a heart steadfast and true and my spirit must be wild and free
So if I may be your wife and still queen of my own life
Then I will go with you and be your lady-o."

"Well, I wear a crown of gold with a sceptre to my hand
Bright magic wealth untold I have at my command
But the riches I seek to find are those within your mind
Oh, pray, come be my Queen of Hearts, my lady-o."

"Yes, I will come with you and be your lady-o."
