Neil Sedaka
Soiltaire
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
And keeping to himself
Begins to deal
And still the king of hearts
Is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And hе deals them out again

[Verse 2]
A little hopе
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
[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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
