And keeping to himself, begins to deal
While life goes on around him everywhere
And every road that takes him, takes him down
And deals them out again
Life goes on around him everywhere
And Solitaire is the only game in town
Another losing game comes to an end
And keeping to himself begins to deal
And still the King of Hearts is well concealed
While life goes on around him everywhere
A little hope goes up in smoke
A heart that cared that went unshared
He's playing Solitaire
And still the King of Hearts is well concealed
Just how it goes, goes without saying
And every road that takes him, takes him down
And every road that takes him, takes him down
There was a man, a lonely man
Another losing game comes to an end
Who would command the hand he's playing
He's playing Solitaire
Until it died within his silence
And deals them out again
And Solitaire is the only game in town
And Solitaire is the only game in town
