Soliltary man
Embracing Solitude: Neil Diamond's Reflection on Love's Challenges
Lyrics
Melinda was mine
Melinda was once my romantic partner
'Til the time that I found her holdin' Jim
Until I discovered her with another man, Jim
And lovin' him then Sue came along
Sue entered my life and loved me passionately
Loved me strong, that's what I thought
I believed Sue's love was strong and genuine
Me and Sue that died, too
Me and Sue's love eventually came to an end
Don't know that I will
Uncertain if I will find lasting love
But until I can find me a girl who'll stay
Searching for a loyal woman who won't deceive
And won't play games behind me
Seeking a partner who won't play deceitful games
Then I'll be what I am a solitary man
Until then, accepting my current state as a solitary man
Solitary man
Reiterating the theme of being a solitary man
I've had it to here
Reached a breaking point in relationships
Bein' where love's a small word
Love feels trivial, reduced to a small word
Part-time thing paper ring
Relationships seem temporary, like a paper ring
I know it's been done
Acknowledging the commonality of heartbreak
Havin' one girl who loves you right or wrong
Desiring a committed partner, regardless of flaws
Weak or strong
Emphasizing the need for enduring love
Don't know that I will
Still unsure if lasting love is in my future
But until I can find me a girl who'll stay
Continuing the search for a faithful companion
And won't play games behind me
Rejecting deceptive games in relationships
I'll be what I am a solitary man
Accepting the reality of being a solitary man
Solitary man
Reiterating the theme of being a solitary man
Don't know that I will
Uncertain if lasting love is attainable
But until I can find me a girl who'll stay
Continuing the quest for a faithful partner
And won't play games behind me
Rejecting deceptive games in relationships
Then I'll be what I am a solitary man
Accepting the reality of being a solitary man
Solitary man solitary man
Repeating the acknowledgment of being a solitary man
Solitary man
Final repetition of the theme of being a solitary man
