He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He dosent play for the money he wins
He dosent play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The scared geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome

I know that the spades are the sword of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart

He may lay the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hands
While the memory of it fades

And if I told you "I LOVE YOU"
you`d maybe think there is something wrong
I`m not a man of too many faces
The mask I Wear is one
those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost

I know that the spades are the sword of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape of my heart ...

<< SHAPE OF MY HEART - STING >>
