Solitaire, lyric by Clay Aiken

from the songs album American Idol 2

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
