Solitaire

And there was a man

A lonely man

Who lost his love

Through his indifference

A heart that cared

That went unshared

Until it died

Would end his silence

And solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes him, takes him down

And by himself, it's easy to pretend

He'll never love again

And keeping to himself, he plays the game

Without her love, it always ends the same

While life goes on around him everywhere

He's playing solitaire

Another day

A lonely day

So much to say

That goes unspoken

And through the night

His sleepless nights

His eyes are closed

His heart is broken

And solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes him, takes him down

And by himself, it's easy to pretend

She's coming back again

And keeping to himself, he plays the game

Without her love, it always ends the same

While life goes on around him everywhere

He's playing solitaire

A little hope

Goes up in smoke

Just how it goes

Goes without saying

Solitaire

And by himself, it's easy to pretend

He'll never love again

Oh, and keeping to himself, he plays the game

Without her love, it always ends the same

While life goes on around him everywhere

He's playing solitaire
