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 himTakes 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 solitaireA 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
