Shape Of My Heart by Sting

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 the respect

He deals the (1)__________ to find the answer

The sacred geometry of chance

The (2)____________ law of probable outcome

The numbers lead a dance



I know (3)________ the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that (4)________________ mean money for this art

But that's not the (5)__________ of my heart



He may play the (6)________ of diamonds

He may lay the queen of spades

He may (7)______________ a king in his hand

While the memory of it fades



I (8)________ that the (9)____________ are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are (10)______________ of war

I know that diamonds (11)________ 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 (12)________ you that I (13)__________ you

You'd (14)__________ think there's (15)__________________ wrong

I'm not a man of too many faces

And (18)________ out to their cost

Like those who (19)__________ their luck in too (20)________ places

And those who (21)________ are lost



I know (22)________ the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I (23)________ that diamonds mean (24)__________ for this art

But that's not the shape of my heart

That's not the (25)__________ of my (26)__________
