Solitaire - The Carpenters

There was a man,
A lonely man
Who lost his love
Through his indifference

A heart that cared,
That went unshared
Untill it died within his silence

He´ll never love again
And solitaire´s the only game in town
And every road that takes him,
Takes him down

And by,
And by himself
It´s easy to pretend

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

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 every where
He´s playing solitaire

And solitaire´s the only game in town
And every road that takes him,
Takes him down

And by,
And by himself
It´s easy to pretend

And solitaire´s the only game in town
And every road that takes him,
Takes him down

And by, and by, and by
And by himself
It´s easy to pretend...
