Discover the story of the song > Queen of Hearts – Juice Newton

The song is about a woman, the protagonist, who is waiting for a train but also waiting for someone special who makes her heart ache. She knows it's not smart to be with this person because he's dangerous and will lie to her, but she can't stay away from him. The song talks about how hard it is to be in love with someone who only wants fun and games, while the singer metaphorically refers to herself as the queen of hearts being played with by her lover, who is like a joker and will do anything to keep her.
