Solitaire is when you are lost in the dead of night
Ohhh, and it's dark and lonely at

Nothing seems right to you
SO you pull out your deck of cards, play yourself a game
Solitaire

And you count up the cards and there's only fifty-one
Ohhh but you play them anyway
Every card but one
And you don't have to look it's the queen of hearts that's gone
She left the joker here to play

Oh it's solitaire
When you're on your own
No one's coming home
And there's no one there

Oh it's solitaire
When you're on your own
No one's coming home
And there's no one there

And it's the king of fools who sits and plays with clubs
Just 'cause his pride got in the way
And pride was all it was so he sits there alone with a debt of paper hearts
Oh while his lover slips away

Oh it's solitaire
When you're on your own
No one's coming home
And there's no one there

Solitaire
When you're on your own
No one's coming home
And there's no one there

Solitaire, it's solitaire
When you're on your own
No one's coming home
And there's no one there
