Lyrics Johnny Mathis

Johnny Mathis

Solitaire

There was a man, a lonely man

Who lost his love through his indifference

A heart that cared, that went unshared

And slowly died within his silence

Now solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes me, takes me down

And by myself, it's easy to pretend

I'll never love again

And keeping to 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

And by myself it's easy to pretend

You're coming back again

Now solitaire's the only game in town

And every road that takes me, takes me down

And by myself it's easy to pretend

You're coming back again

Solitaire's the only game in town

Every road that takes me, takes me down...
