Solitaire

My radio’s playing in the kitchen It’s stuck in the year that I was born Inside me I feel an aching itching Hearing songs that feel so tired and so worn So I ask myself, I’m hunting for answers But all I find are questions asking why Fate made me a solitary dancer To be alone until the day I die I’m playing solitaire All by myself and I don’t care The queen of hearts got lost somewhere Tell me what else is there…. My clock is ticking on the fireplace The hands are moving slowly marking time Inside my own heartbeats at the clocks pace No flames are burning bright it’s a crime Yes I looked for love, but didn’t find it Never known the taste of my first kiss So I’m a self made stand alone misfit But hell there’s nothing I really miss I’m playing solitaire All by myself and I don’t care The queen of hearts got lost somewhere Tell me what else is there…. If I play my cards well Who can tell Maybe deal me a Jack From the pack Pick an ace for myself Leave my shelf Then stack up my deck What the heck I’m playing solitaire All by myself and I don’t care The queen of hearts got lost somewhere Tell me what else is there….
