Lyrics Duke Ellington

Duke Ellington

Solitude

In my solitude, you haunt me

With reveries of days gone by

In my solitude you taunt me

With memories that will not die

I sit in my chair, filled with despair

No one can be so sad

With gloom everywhere, I sit and I stare

I know that I'll soon go mad

In my solitude, I'm praying

Dear Lord above, send back my love

Dear Lord above, send back my love
