There was a man, a lonely man Who lost his love through his indifference A heart that cared, that went on sharing Until it died within his silence And so it tells, the only gate it's on 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 a 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 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 a 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 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 a love it always ends the same While life goes on around him everywhere He's playing solitaire Thanks for watching!
