Time to replace the starter. Could be the solenoid or the starter motor. Just replace them both. When you normally buy a starter it has the solenoid.
What happens is when the starter gets hot (it's attached to the motor and by the exhaust) the internal resistances go up. All starters will eventually do what yours is doing given enough time as the aging process degrades insulation and internals.
