A post Valentine song dedicated to Dennis the one and only boy I will ever love. Sung to the tune of From A Jack To A King by Ned Miller, 1963.

 

From A Jack To A Queen
by Barbara Lynn Terry

From a Jack to a Queen.
From loneliness to a woman grown.
I played an Ace and I won a King,
An' walked away with your heart.

From a Jack to a Queen.
With no regrets, I stacked the cards at sea.
And the Lady I so needed to be
Showed everyone the girl in me
 

For just a little while, I thought that I might be lost again.
Then just in time, I saw your handsome face.

From a Jack to a Queen.
From loneliness to a woman grown.
I played an Ace and won you for my my own,
You made me Queen of your heart.

For just a little while, I thought that I might be lost again.
But your smile just made me melt
 

 

                                                     From a Jack to a Queen.
                                                     From loneliness to a woman grown.
                                                     I played an Ace and won you for my own,
                                                     You made me Queen of your heart.
