Shape of My Heart （我心之花色|我心之形）　歌手：Sting

歌词：Sting & Dommic Miller

电影《这个杀手不太冷》（1994）的主题曲（片尾曲）

He deals the cards as a meditation

他玩纸牌 如深深冥想

And those he plays never suspect

他打牌从不迟疑

He doesn't play for the money he wins

他打牌不是为了所赢的钱

He doesn't play for the respect

也不是为了获得尊重

He deals the cards to find the answer

他在牌局中找寻觅答案

The secret geometry of chance

那神秘几何中的偶然

The hidden law of probable outcome

还有那飘忽结局的背后的隐匿之弦

The numbers lead a dance

数字翩翩飞舞

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

我明白黑桃如士兵手握的利剑

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

梅花似战场轰鸣的炮枪

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

这艺术般游戏里 方块便若到手的金钱

But that's not the shape of my heart

但那不是我红桃的形状/但那不是我心的形状

He may play the jack of diamonds

他可能会出方块J

He may lay the queen of spades

又或许 他会下注黑桃Q

He may conceal a king in his hand

抑或将手中的K掩藏

While the memory of it fades

但这些记忆 终将褪色

重唱：

I know that the spades are the 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

那不是我红桃的形状/那不是我心的形状

And if I told you that I loved you

如果我对你说我爱你

You'd maybe think there's something wrong

你会有些许困惑

I'm not a man of too many faces

我并不是善变的人

The mask I wear is one

我的面具 始终如一

Those who speak know nothing

那些多言却无知的人们

And find out to their cost

斤斤计较眼前得失

Like those who curse their luck in too many places

如同四处抱怨命运者

And those who fear a lost

戚戚于失

重唱：

I know that the spades are the 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

注：sting在这里双重使用“heart”，heart既有“心”的意思也有“红桃”的意思。一词双关，歌词写得何其精彩！

 

觉得这首歌描述的非常酷，一种特立独行，一种了然于胸，一种追逐狂热。

 

比较喜欢的几个版本：

最爱电影版，好电影好音乐，天作之合
