Lyrics

Solitaire

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There was a man, a lonely man

Who lost his love through his indifference

A heart that cared, that went unshared

Until it died with his silence

Now solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes me, takes me down

And by myself, it's easy to pretend

I'll never love again

And keeping to myself I play 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, it's sleepless nights

The eyes are closed, heart is broken

Now 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

Now 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

Solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes me, takes me down

And by myself, it's easy to pretend
