Solitaire (recorded version) Lyrics

Solitaire (recorded version) Lyrics

there was a man
a lonely man
who lost his love
through his indifference

a heart that cared
that went unshared
until it died
in his silence

and solitaire’s the only game in town
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
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 home
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
oooohh – 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

solitaire
solitaire
