solitude

billie holiday

in my solitude

you haunt me

with dreadful ease

of days gone by

in my solitude

you taunt me

with memories

that never die

i 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 mad

in my solitude

i'm afraid

dear lord above

send back my love

i 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 mad

in my solitude

i'm afraid

dear lord above

send me back my love
