Joe McElderry - Solitaire Lyrics






There was a man, a lonely man
Who lost his love, thru his indifference
A heart that cared, that went unshared
Until it died within his silence

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitare

And keeping to himself begins to deal
And still the king of hearts is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And he deals them out again

A little hope goes up in smoke
Just how it goes, goes without saying

There was a man, a lonely man
Who would command the hand he's playing

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire
And keeping to himself begins to deal
And still the king of hearts is well concealed
Another losing game comes to an end
And he deals them out again

And solitaire is the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing solitaire

    Can't fault this incredible singer but the video is poor, which is a shame.

    This song is not about a young man, and the scenes grabbed from here and there in the limo and walking around an empty studio just don't cut it. I would have made the video in the old town in Nice using an older actor and a proper storyboard.

  19. M.... B....

    jajaj el gano en xfactor primer lugar y ahora olly murs es mucho mas famoso que el

  20. R.... R....

  34. A.... J....

    Memories come flooding back with this song, darkest time of my life, drinking, gambling and self denial. growing up as a gay man in a straight mans world of stockbroking, pretending to be someone I wasn't, fell in love with many young guys, but was too afraid to do anything about it, lost many friends along the way, many regrets....Andy Williams version was my favourite until I heard this and saw the video, wow the memories, you are an inspiration to many gay guys in this world, Awesome xx

    A.... J....

    Adrian Jackson Hope things have worked out for you, Adrian.

  35. C.... ....

    He deserves more views :(

  36. H.... C....

    Love him!!!!

  37. A.... S....

    beautiful Joe with beautiful voice!!!!

  38. j.... g....

    first the great late Andy Williams and now Joe to add to my list of first class singers to add to my favorites list. Very nicely performed JOE>

  39. W.... ....

    Clean your bloody ears out Joe has a beautiful voice

  40. l.... ....

    So many memories with this song,one of the darkest times of my life,played this song time after time and it put me through the hardship,that was the Ellen Carpenter version,but this one is the closest and honest version I heard since than,thank you for that Joe!

  41. P.... ....

    At the start, I thought it was a girl singing

  42. m.... ....

    your voice is so amazing......beautiful!!!!!

  43. P.... ....

    I know there has to be some carefully thought out, well-informed opinion that allowed for such an observation; however, struggling to consider what and how.

    :)

  44. J.... ....

    joe is rubbish no good at all

  45. S.... S....

    Download the new single!!

  46. T.... ....

    Very nice melody and Joe is singing so well :)

  47. P.... ....

    Looking forward to Joe's 4th album, which is going to be very different to his pop, opera/classic. This guy can sing the phone book and he would sound great. He can actually sing live better than his recordings. That cannot be said for many these days.

  48. o.... ....

    Jest przecudny i dawno takiego głosu nie słyszałam, który tak z sercem spiewa.Brawo Joe!

  49. h.... l....

    Somehow this reminds me of Kurt Hummel... :)

  50. n.... e....

    what a beautiful song

  51. D.... G....

    @inkerman2012 i do :\.
    I actualy like him. i have no idea why i said that ..

  52. P.... A....

    I'm glad his new album is doin' well on UK Charts! Congratulations Joe!

  53. P.... A....

    Great performance :)

  54. i.... ....

    @dianejazlyn You sound like a toss

  55. M.... ....

    He really can sing, no doubt about that

  56. r.... j....

    @dianejazlyn you should check your "Girl" friends sex then.

  57. D.... G....

    YOU SOUND LIKE A GIRL.

  58. I.... ....

    Really a shame this song wasn't a single or released to radio stations at least.

  59. X.... �....

    esta gordo! k mal

  60. m.... ....

    Joe was always note perfect on the Xfactor and his singing effortless.. He has a pure and well toned voice which is better without the Simon Cowell influence.

  61. A.... ....

    We love you so much joe!!!!! :):) your so AMAZING!

  62. G.... ....

    simon cowell only has himself to blame. he was giving joe mediocre songs to sing.

  63. A.... ....

    Great great performance ! like always :-)

  64. N.... ....

    This old song sounds absolutely great now when you sing it,Joe!!! I love it!!! Thank you!!!

  65. k.... ....

    he's so cute ! <3

  66. O.... ....
