I can hear you through the silence,
talking slowly to the wind,
no one ever sees the real you.
And your standing in the darkness,
looking out towards the sea,
no one ever sees the things you do.

And I know you,
I can see how long you've waited by your eyes,
and we've got so far to go to the horizon,
but if the legend ever fades,
turning you will find me,
view the king of spades,
though we never saw the light of day,
no way.

But to you it made no difference,
cus you've seen it all before,
no one ever seemed to let you be.
So you wait until the day,
and you walk on to the shore,
no one ever seemed to be so free.

And I know you,
I can see how long you've waited by your eyes,
and we've got so far to go to the horizon,
but if the legend ever fades,
turning you will find me,
view the king of spades,
though we never saw the light of day,
no way.

When I see your eyes,
I can see the soul,
why did you play the king of spades?
why did you play the king of spades?
why did you play the king of spades?
