Solitaire - Brett Smiley

There was a man

A lonely man

Who lost his love

Through his indifference

A heart that cared

That one time shared

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

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
