Solitude (With Nina Simone and Ella Fitzgerald)

In my solitude

You haunt me

With dreadful ease

Of days gone byIn my solitude

You taunt me

With memories

That never dieI sit in my chair

And filled with despair

There's no one could be so sad

With gloom everywhere

I sit and I stare

I know that I'll soon go madIn my solitude

I'm afraid

Dear Lord above

Send back my loveI sit in my chair

Filled with despair

There's no one

Could be so sad

With gloom everywhere

I sit and I stare

I know that I'll soon go madIn my solitude

I'm afraid

Dear Lord above

Send me back my love
