In a little while from now If I'm not feelin' any less sour I promise myself to treat myself Visit a nearby tower Climbin' to the top I'll throw myself off In an effort to make it clear to who Ever what it's like when you're shattered Left standin' in the lurch at a church Where people sayin' "My god, that's tough, she stood him up" No point in us remainin' May as well go home as I did it on my own Alone again, naturally To think that only yesterday I was cheerful, bright and gay Was lookin' forward to But who wouldn't do the role I was about to play? As if you knock me down Reality came around And without so much As a mere touch Cut me into little pieces Leavin' me to doubt Talk about God in His mercy Oh, if You really does exist Then why did he desert me? And 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? I ask what do we do Lookin' back over the years Whatever else that appears I remember I cried when my father died Never wishin' to hide the tears At 65 years old My mother god rest her soul She couldn't understand why the only man She had ever loved had been taken Leavin' 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 I'm all on my own again, naturally All on my own again, naturally
