Solo Lyrics - Live 1974: My Father's Place - Fairport Convention

Good morning, good afternoon, 

And what have you got to say? 

Well I'm waiting, but I can't stay long, 

It's such a lovely day. 

There's a time to be talking 

And a time when it's no use. 

Right now I think the things you say 

Are liable to confuse. 

I've just gone solo. 

Do you play solo? 

Ain't life a solo?

What a wonderful way to live, 

She's travelling all over the world. 

Why, the fame and all the golden 

Opportunities unfurled. 

No time for the gent with the mulliner bentley 

And heaven knows what else. 

Why, he wouldn't even stand a chance 

With all his oil-wells. 

She just went solo. 

Do you play solo? 

Ain't life a solo?

I've always lived in a mansion 

On the other side of the moon. 

I've always kept a unicorn 

And I never sing out of tune. 

I could tell you that the grass is really greener 

On the other side of the hill, 

But I can't communicate with you 

And I guess I never will. 

We've all gone solo. 

We all play solo. 

Ain't life a solo?
