Solitude
Echoes of Longing: Helen Humes' Solitude Unveiled
Lyrics
In my solitude
In a state of being alone
You haunt me
You persistently occupy my thoughts
With dreadful ease
With unsettling ease, reminiscent of past days
Of days gone by
Recalling moments and events that have elapsed
In my solitude
Alone, you mock or tease me
You taunt me
Provoking me with memories
With memories
That linger and persist
That never die
Unfading memories
I sit in my chair
I occupy a chair
And filled with despair
Overwhelmed with hopelessness
There's no one could be so sad
No one could experience such deep sorrow
With gloom everywhere
Surrounded by darkness and sadness
I sit and I stare
Sitting and staring aimlessly
I know that I'll soon go mad
Anticipating a descent into madness
In my solitude
Feeling fear and uncertainty
I'm afraid
Expressing apprehension
Dear Lord above
Addressing a higher power
Send back my love
Plea to reunite with lost love
I sit in my chair
Repetition of sitting in despair
Filled with despair
Emphasizing the state of hopelessness
There's no one, no one
Emphasizing the absence of anyone
No onecould be so sad
No one could feel such profound sadness
With gloom everywhere
Describing pervasive gloom
I sit and I stare
Continuing to sit and stare
I know that I'll soon go mad
Acknowledging the impending descent into madness
In my solitude
Repeating the state of solitude
I'm afraid
Experiencing fear in isolation
Dear Lord above
Addressing the divine for intervention
Send back my love
Reiterating the plea for the return of lost love
