Solitaire
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
(*) and solitaire’s the only game in town
And
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
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
Repeat (*)
Repeat (**)
Repeat
(*)
