Duke Ellington
In My Solitude
In my solitude
You haunt me
With the memories
Of days gone by
In my solitude
You taunt me
With those memories
That just won't die
I sit in my chair
Filled with despair
No one could be so sad
With gloom everywhere
I sit and I stare
I know that I'll soon go mad
In my solitude
Oh, I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send me back my love
I sit in my chair
Filled with despair
No one could be so sad
With gloom everywhere
I just sit and I stare
I know that I'll soon go mad
In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send me back my love
