When I was twenty one
Life was but an open book
If I had a chance to be loved, I took
Beaten down, I would climb back with just one look
When I was unafraid
I got caught up in the game you played
But you turned on your heel
And you walked away
And I never got a chance to say
I love you, I wanted to
But now I'm seeing, its just not you
You'll never now what it's like to love me
You'll never know what it's like
To be loved by me
Oh oh, oh oh
You'll never learn what it's like
Oh oh
And now I'm twenty nine
Promises have come and passed
Is love just a game where I didn't get the winning card?
You dealt me your hand
But there was a joker in the house of hearts
The game is over, the chips are down
You'll never now what it's like to love me
You'll never know what it's like
To be loved by me
Oh oh, oh oh
You'll never learn what it's like
Oh oh
And I know that with an end comes a beginning
You could feel like hope is lost but you might be winning
So keep on giving
Don't stop living
'Cause the king of hearts
He's got your card in his hand
I wanna know what it's like to love you
I wanna know what it's like
To be loved by you
Oh oh, oh oh
I wanna learn what it's like
Oh oh
