Alone Again (Naturally)

[Verse 1]

In a little while from now

If I'm not feeling any less sour

I promised 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"

"May as well go home"

As I did on my own

[Refrain]

Alone again, naturally

[Verse 2]

To think that only yesterday

I was cheerful, bright and gay

Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do

The role I was about to play (Oh yeah)

But as if to knock me down (Knock me down)

Reality came around (Came around)

And without so much as a mеre touch

Cut me into little piеces

Leaving me to doubt

Talk about God and His mercy

For if He really does exist

Why did He desert me

In my hour of need

I truly am indeed

[Refrain]

Alone again, naturally (Naturally)

[Bridge]

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?

[Refrain]

Alone again, naturally (Naturally)

[Verse 3]

Looking back over the years (Looking back over the years)

And whatever else that appears

I remember I cried when my father died

Never wishing to hide the tears (Hide the tears)

And at sixty-five years old (Five years old)

My mother, God rest her soul (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

[Refrain]

Alone again, naturally

Alone again, naturally (Naturally)
