There was a man
a lonely man
Who lost his love
through his indifference
A heart that cared
that went unchecked
Until it died
in 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
Ohhh
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
