Alone Again Lyrics

Alone Again lyrics

In a little while from now

If I'm not feeling any less sour

I
promise myself to treat myself

And visit a nearby tower

And
climbing to the top will throw myself off

In an effort to make it clear
to whoever

What it's like when you're shattered

Left standing in
the lurch at a church

Where people saying: "My God, that's tough"

"She stood him up"

"No point in us remaining"

"We may as well go
home"

As I did on my own

Alone again, naturally



To
think that only yesterday

I was cheerful, bright and gay

Looking
forward to who wouldn't do

The role I was about to play?

But as if
to knock me down

Reality came around

And without so much as a mere
touch

Cut me into little pieces

Leaving me to doubt

Talk
about God in His mercy

Who if He really does exist

Why did He
desert me?

In my hour of need

I truly am indeed

Alone again,
naturally



It seems to me that there are more hearts

Broken
in the world that can't be mended

Left unattended

What do we do?
What do we do?



Alone again, naturally



Looking back
over the years

And whatever else that appears

I remember I cried
when my father died

Never wishing to hide the tears

And at
sixty-five years old

My mother, God rest her soul

Couldn't
understand why the only man

She had ever loved had been taken

Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken

Despite
encouragement from me

No words were ever spoken

And when she passed
away

I cried and cried all day

Alone again, naturally

Alone
again, naturally
