there was a man a lonely man

who lost his love thru his indifference

a heart that cared that went unshared

until it died within his silence

and solitaire is the only game in town

and every road that takes

him takes him down

while life goes on around him everywhere

he's playing solitaire

but keeping to himself begins to deal

and still the king of

hearts is well concealed

another losing game comes to an end

and he deals them out again

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 is the only game in town

and every road that takes

him takes him down

while life goes on around him everywhere

he's playing solitaire

but keeping to himself begins to deal

and still the king of

hearts is well concealed

another losing game comes to an end

and he deals them out again

and keeping to himself begins to deal

and still the king of

hearts is well concealed

another losing game comes to an end

and he deals them out again
