An ace is a playing card. In the standard French deck, an ace has a single suit symbol (a heart, diamond, spade, or club) located in the middle of the card, sometimes large and decorated, especially in the case of the Ace of Spades. This embellishment on the Ace of Spades started when King James VI of Scotland and I of England required an insignia of the printing house to be printed on the Ace of Spades. This insignia was necessary for identifying the printing house and stamping it as having paid the new stamp tax. Although this requirement was abolished in 1960, the tradition has been kept by many card makers. In other countries the stamp and embellishments are usually found on ace cards; clubs in France, diamonds in Russia, and hearts in Genoa because they have the most blank space.
The word "ace" comes from the Old French word as (from Latin 'as') meaning 'a unit', from the name of a small Roman coin. It originally meant the side of a die with only one mark, before it was a term for a playing card. Since this was the lowest roll of the die, it traditionally meant 'bad luck' in Middle English, but as the ace is often the highest playing card, its meaning has since changed to mean 'high-quality, excellence'. This connotation has seen the word applied to an unreachable tennis serve, a successful fighter pilot and more generally as a person proficient in his or her field, especially a sporting field.

Já conheci muita gente
Gostei de alguns garotos
Mas depois de você
Os outros são os outros
Ninguém pode acreditar
Na gente separado
Eu tenho mil amigos, mas você
Foi o meu melhor namorado
Procuro evitar comparações
Entre flores e declarações
Eu tento te esquecer
A minha vida continua
Mas é certo que eu seria sempre sua
Quem pode me entender
Depois de você os outros são os outros e só
São tantas noites em restaurantes
Amores sem ciúme
Eu sei bem mais do que antes
Sobre mãos, bocas e perfumes
Eu não consigo achar normal
Meninas do seu lado
Eu sei que não merecem
Mais que um cinema
