He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn´t play for the money he wins
?
He doesn´t play for respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
?
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
?
But that´s not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
?
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
?
But that´s not the shape of my heart
That´s not the shape
The shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
You´d maybe think there´s 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 swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
?
But that´s not the shape of my heart
That´s not the shape of my heart
That´s not the shape
The shape of my heart
