he deals the cards as a meditation

and those he plays never suspect

he doesnt play for the money he wins

he doesnt play for respect

he deals the cards to find the answer

the sacred geometry of chance

the hidden law of a probable outcome

and lonelessly to dance

CHORUS

i know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

i know that the clubs are weapons of war

i know that the diamonds mean money for this art

but thats not the shape of my heart

VERSE 2

he may play the jack of diamonds

he may lay the queen of spades

he may conceal the king in his hand

while the memory of it fades

CHORUS

VERSE 3

and if i told you that i loved you

you may be think there's something wrong

i not a man of too many faces

the mask i wear is one

although i speak, i know nothing

i'll find too their cost

like those who curse their luck

in too many places

like those who fear are lost
