Solitaire

[Verse 1:]
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.

[Chorus:]
And solitaire is 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.

[Post-Chorus:]
And keeping to himself, begins the deal
And, still, the king of hearts is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And he deals them out again.

[Verse 2:]
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.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Post-Chorus:]
And keeping to himself, begins to deal
And, still, the king of hearts is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And he deals them out again.

[Chorus:]
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.

[Outro:]
He's playing solitaire.
