Текст песни
The talk of all of New Orleans town
With your flashy style and a gilded crown
You called me 'precious' with a flirty glance
I swore I'd never give your games a chance
Said to myself, 'My heart is locked and sealed
To someone like you, it will never yield
But oh, the joke's on me, it seems
Shattering all my cautious dreams
From 'never you' to 'all I see
How could this happen to me?
This stubborn heart has lost the fight
You set my world on fire, burning bright
Then trouble came, a storm we had to face
I saw a different man take his place
Not just the swagger, not the careless grin
But a fire of protection deep within
You stood before me, a shield against the pain
And washed away my judgment with the rain
But oh, the joke's on me, it seems
Shattering all my cautious dreams
From 'never you' to 'all I see
How could this happen to me?
This stubborn heart has lost the fight
You set my world on fire, burning bright
This hot-tempered king, who loves the lavish game
This walking fire, who everyone can name
Behind that wildness that once made me flee
Is a passionate heart that only beats for me
Oh, the joke's on me, it seems
Shattering all my cautious dreams
From 'never you' to 'all I see
How could this happen to me?
This stubborn heart has lost the fight
You set my world on fire, burning bright
