There was a man, a lonely man, who lost his love, through his indifference
A heart that cared, that went unshared, until it died, within 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
A little hope, goes up in smoke, just how it goes, goes without saying
There was a man, a lonely man, who would command, the hand he's playing
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
And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere, he's playing solitaire
