Since you´ve gone I spend each lonely night,
Dealing out the cards from left to right,
And the King of Hearts is there to remind me
That I´m all alone playing solitaire.

Love was just another game for two,
I see now that´s all it meant to you,
And my heart got lost somewhere in the shuffle,
So I´m all alone playing solitaire

In each romance there´s an element of chance,
A gamble to win or to lose,
You play to win, then you find you´re playing in a game with no rules,
Just made for fools.
Now, the Joker has a laugh on me,
´Cause I played my hand so carelessly,
And until you wanna share that old feeling,
I´ll be dealing time away with solitaire.

And until you want to share that old feeling,
I´ll be dealing time away, dealing time away with solitaire.
