Nina Simone - Solitude



Beautiful song by Eddie Delange, Irving Mills and Duke Ellington. Nina's longing voice once again makes this an unforgettable rendition.

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, I know that I'll soon go mad

In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear God above
Send back my love

In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send back my love
