Ed Sheeran The Joker And The Queen (remix)
Ed Sheeran recruits his friend and frequent collaborator Taylor Swift for a new take on his = (Equals) track “The Joker And The Queen,” a ballad about a fulfilling relationship that thrives despite the couple’s fears. It’s the fourth track from = (Equals) and his fourth overall collab with Swift, following 2012’s “Everything Has Changed,” 2017’s “End Game,” and 2021’s “Run,” which they wrote together in 2012.
Sheeran first teased the collab in an interview with Capital FM in October 2021, where he said a remix of the track was on the works, featuring a female American artist. After months of speculation, it was confirmed, by YouTube copyright claims, that the featured artist would be Taylor Swift. Sheeran officially confirmed the track just days later at the 2022 BRIT Awards.

[Verse 1: Ed Sheeran]
How was I to know? It’s a crazy thing
I showed you my hand and you still let me win
And who was I to say that this was meant to be?
The road that was broken brought us together
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]
And I know you could fall for a thousand kings
And hearts that would give you a diamond ring
When I fold, you see the best in me
The joker and the queen
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
I’ve been played before, if you hadn’t guessed
So I kept my cards close to my foolproof vest
But you called my bluff (But you called my bluff)
And saw through all my tells (And saw through all my tells)
And then you went all in
And we left together
[Chorus: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
And I know you think that what makes a king
Is gold, a palace, and diamond rings
When I fold, you see the best in me
The joker and the queen
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran, Ed Sheeran & Taylor Swift]
And I know you could fall for a thousand kings
And hearts that would give you a diamond ring
When I folded, you saw the best in me
The joker and the queen
The joker and the queen
