Solitaire lyrics

I still remember how much I used to need you

Tried so hard to please you, but you didn't need me

You knew I loved you, knew I always would be there

You just did what you wanted, you didn't care

All the cards were held by you

There was nothin' I could do

All those nights I sat alone, starin' at the telephone

Wonderin' were you ever comin' home

Solitaire, it got so lonely

Solitaire, no one to hold me

Where were you when I played solitaire?

It took some time but I stopped thinkin' about you

Started livin' without you, now look who's back here

You've had a change of heart, well, mine just couldn't wait, no no

You found out you loved me just a little too late

Once the cards were held by you

Now there's nothin' you can do

All those nights you sit alone, starin' at the telephone

Wonderin' if I'm ever comin' home

Solitaire, see what it's like now

Solitaire, to cry all night now

Solitaire, see how it feels to bear

Solitaire, it gets so lonely

Solitaire, you wanna hold me

Don't wait up, 'cos babe, I won't be there

Solitaire, solitaire, solitaire
