There was a man, a lonely man Who lost his love, through his indifference A heart that cared, that went unchecked And slowly died within his silence And solitaire's the only game in town And every road that takes me, takes me down By myself, it's easy to pretend I'll never love again And keeping to myself I plays the game Without your love it always ends the same While life goes on around me everywhere I'm 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 me, takes me down And by myself it's easy to pretend You're coming back again And keeping to himself I plays the game Without your love it always ends the same While life goes on around me everywhere I'm playing solitaire And solitaire's the only game in town And every road that takes me, takes me down While life goes on around me everywhere I'm playing solitaire
