Contrary to popular belief, this song isn’t a love song. In a 1993 interview, Sting said the lyrics of the track tell the story of a card player (a gambler/poker player) who plays cards or gambles not because he hopes to win but because he wants to “figure out something” eluding him. According to Sting, the gambler gambles mainly because he wants to understand “some kind of mystical logic in luck”. Sting went on to refer to the gambler as a “philosopher” who gambles neither for respect nor for money but in the sole attempt to figure out the logic in chance or luck, which he refers to as a law that is to a certain degree scientific or even religious. In describing the character of the gambler, Sting said that by virtue of the fact that he is a poker player, he doesn’t “express his emotions”. He wears a mask, which “never changes”. In Sting’s 2007 book titled Lyrics by Sting, Sting said after receiving the song’s guitar riff from his longtime friend and guitarist Dominic Miller, he went out for a walk through the woods to try to think of the lyrics of the song and that by the time he returned, he had written the entire song in his head.
