Solitaire

The nothingness of life

Plunged into eternal darkness

An animal at bay

Words cannot convey

All is bathed in gray

A cold wind's blow

It's touch and go

If wishes were horses then beggars would ride

A torrid time

A strange design

Come hell or high water, come be the guide

I am here, down the ages

The road in deep despair

I'm solitaire

The diamond in your chain

The beacon fire in endless strain

The diamond in your chain

Is there a ghost of chance?

Here on this road to Damascus

The sun of eventide

Temptations misguide

The agony inside

Crash and burn

At every turn

Helplessly losing perception of time

A friendly card

A strange regard

Searching for reason and seeking for rhyme

I am here, down the ages

The road in deep despair

I'm solitaire

The diamond in your chain

The beacon fire in endless strain

The diamond in your chain

I am here, down the ages

The road in deep despair

I'm solitaire

The diamond in your chain

The beacon fire in endless strain

The diamond in your chain

Pylon in the rain

Beacon in the strain

Pylon in the rain

Diamond in the chain

Pylon in the rain

Beacon in the strain

Pylon in the rain

Diamond in the chain

I'm solitaire, I'm solitaire

Solitaire, I'm solitaire, woo-oo-oh

Diamond in your chain
