One Hundred Years Of Solitude

by Jane Wiedlin

on Jane Wiedlin (1985), The Very Best Of Jane Wiedlin (1993)

The truck won't start
That was always your department
And it's so hot
The A/C broke awhile back
And I still haven't fixed it
I remember us
Huddled by the heater
Watching the steam rise
And trying to get warm
How long, how long ago does that seem

Seems like a hundred years of solitude
Feels like a hundred years of solitude

My footsteps ring
They're the only sound
In these empty rooms
I remember when this house was
Locked up in your laughter
I know that you
You do what you've gotta do
And I, I guess that I
I'm holding my own
But it's been so long, so very long

Seems like a hundred years of solitude
Feels like a hundred years of solitude
How long have we been apart
How long have you been gone
Seems like a hundred years of solitude
Solitude

Maybe pretty soon
Winter will come
Seems like a hundred years of solitude

I'm longing for the cold
For you to come home
Feels like a hundred years of solitude

Feels like a hundred years of solitude
Feels like a hundred years of solitude
Feels like a hundred years of solitude
Solitude

Feels like a hundred years of solitude
Ooh, solitude
Feels like a hundred years of solitude

How long have you been gone?
Solitude, solitude
Ooh, solitude
