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

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 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, it's sleepless nights
The eyes are closed, the 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 coming back 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

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
You'll never love again

And keeping to himself he plays the game
Without her love it always ends the same
And by yourself it's easy to pretend
You never love again...
