Solitaire Lyrics - Singles 1974-1978 - The Carpenters

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 

... 

And by himself it's easy to pretend 

... 

He'll never love again 

... 

And keeping to himself he plays the game 

... 

Photos 

Without her love it always ends the same 

... 

While life goes on around him everywhere 

... 

He's playing solitaire 

... 

A little hope 

... 

Goes up in smoke 

... 

Just how it kills 

... 

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 

... 

And by himself it's easy to pretend 

... 

He'll never love again 

... 

And keeping to himself he plays the game 

... 

Without her love it always ends the same 

... 

While life goes on around him everywhere 

... 

He's playing solitaire 

... 

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
