[Verse 1] Four aces staring back at me A lonely king a queen a mystery Shuffle the deck one more time I plead This game of solitaire a solitary need [Chorus] Solitaire blues Yeah solitaire blues No one to lose no one to choose Just me and these cards and the solitaire blues [Verse 2] Black on red red on black a silent war Flipping cards forever wanting more The pile keeps growing my hopes they fade Another game of solitaire another choice I made [Chorus] Solitaire blues Yeah solitaire blues No one to lose no one to choose Just me and these cards and the solitaire blues [Bridge] Maybe tomorrow the cards will be kind A winning streak a peace of mind But for tonight the silence screams Lost in the shuffle
