Left alone revisited - Archie Shepp & Mal Waldron : un hommage à B. Holiday

"Left alone revisited" est la chanson hommage de Mal Waldron à Billie Holiday. C'est une une version interprétée par Archie Shepp et Mal Waldron.

La première version co-écrite par Billie Holiday et Mal Waldron ne fut jamais chantée par la chanteuse. Mal Waldron fut le dernier accompagnateur au piano de Billie.

 Ci-après l'interprétation de la version initiale par Teri Thornton.

Where's the love that's made to fill my heart?
Where's the one from whom I'll never part?
First they hurt me, then desert me
I'm left alone, all alone

There's no house that I can call my home
There's no place from which I'll never roam
Town or city, it's a pity
I'm left alone, all alone

Seek and find they always say
But up to now it's not that way
Maybe fate has let him pass me by
Or perhaps we'll meet before I die
Hearts will open, but until then

I'm left alone, all alone

Left Alone - Mal Waldron
Billie Holiday / Mal Waldron
