Lyrics and translation Procol Harum - The King of Hearts (Live in Utrecht, Holland - 13/02/1992)
There
was
trouble
in
the
air
Le
ciel
s'assombrissait
Just
a
subtle
hint
of
danger
Un
soupçon
de
danger
rôdait
And
a
woman
dressed
in
black
Et
une
femme
vêtue
de
noir
Out
lookin'
for
a
stranger
Cherchait
un
étranger
Well
she
took
me
to
her
room
Elle
m'emmena
dans
sa
chambre
Where
she
offered
me
a
wager
Où
elle
me
proposa
un
pari
She
promised
me
the
moon
Elle
m'a
promis
la
lune
So
I
took
a
chance
Alors
j'ai
tenté
Yes
I
played
the
King
of
Hearts
Oui
j'ai
joué
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
Put
my
cards
out
on
the
table
J'ai
posé
mes
cartes
sur
la
table
I
thought
the
odds
were
in
my
favour
Je
pensais
que
la
chance
était
de
mon
côté
But
she
laid
the
Ace
of
Spades
Mais
elle
a
sorti
l'As
de
Pique
An'
I
wound
up
where
I
started
Et
j'ai
fini
là
où
j'avais
commencé
The
King
of
Hearts
no
more
Plus
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
But
the
King
of
the
Broken-hearted
Mais
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
Brisés
She
cut
the
deck
one
more
Elle
a
recoupé
le
jeu
By
the
light
of
thirteen
candles
À
la
lumière
de
treize
bougies
She
said,
"the
winner
takes
it
all
--
Elle
a
dit
: "Le
gagnant
remporte
tout
--
Is
that
too
much
for
you
to
handle?
C'est
trop
difficile
à
gérer
pour
toi
?
So
I
wandered
through
my
playing
cards
Alors
j'ai
regardé
mes
cartes
And
tried
to
understand
her
Et
j'ai
essayé
de
la
comprendre
I
was
lookin'
for
a
face
Je
cherchais
un
visage
It
was
right
there
in
my
hand
Il
était
là,
dans
ma
main
Yes
I
played
the
King
of
Hearts
Oui
j'ai
joué
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
Put
my
cards
out
on
the
table
J'ai
posé
mes
cartes
sur
la
table
I
thought
the
odds
were
in
my
favour
Je
pensais
que
la
chance
était
de
mon
côté
But
she
laid
the
Ace
of
Spades
Mais
elle
a
sorti
l'As
de
Pique
An'
I
wound
up
where
I
started
Et
j'ai
fini
là
où
j'avais
commencé
The
King
of
Hearts
no
more
Plus
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
But
the
King
of
the
Broken-hearted
Mais
le
Roi
des
Coeurs
