Solitude Lyrics - Duke Ellington

In my solitude you haunt me 

with reveries of days gone by 

in my solitude you taunt me 

with memories that never die 

i sit in my chair 

filled with despair 

nobody could be so sad 

with gloom ev'rywhere 

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 

alternative lyric: 

in my solitude you haunt me 

with reveries of days gone by 

in my solitude you taunt me 

with memories that never die 

i sit in my chair 

i'm filled with despair 

there's no one could be so sad 

with gloom ev'rywhere 

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
