There was a man, a lonely man
Who lost his love, through his indifference
A heart with pain, that will unshake
And slowly died, within his silence

Now solitaire is 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'll play the solitaire

Another day, a lonely day
So much to say that goes unspoken
And through the night, each sleepless night
The eyes are closed, the heart is broken

Now solitaire is 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 myself I play the game
Without your love it always ends the same
While life goes on around me everywhere
I'll play the solitaire
Solitaire is the only game in town
Every road that takes me, takes me down
