SOLITAIRE
(Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody)
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.
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire.
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.
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.
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire.
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.
And solitaire's 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.
