"Solitaire" lyrics

"Solitaire"
(originally by Andy Williams)

There was a man, a lonely man
Who lost his love through his indifference
A heart that cared, that went unchecked
And slowly died within his silence

Now solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes me, takes me down
By myself, it's easy to pretend
I'll never love again

And deep into myself, I play the game
Without your love, it always ends the same
While life goes on around me everywhere
I'm playing solitaire

Another day, a lonely day
So much to say that goes unspoken
And through the night, each sleepless night
The eyes are closed, the heart is broken

Now solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes me, takes me down
I find myself, it's easy to pretend
You're coming back again

And deep into myself, I play the game
Without your love, it always ends the same
While life goes on around me everywhere
I'm playing solitaire

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes me, takes me down
While life goes on around me everywhere
I'm playing solitaire
