| [00:13.34] | In a little while from now, |
| [00:15.74] | If I'm not feeling any less sour |
| [00:18.61] | I promised myself to treat myself |
| [00:21.58] | And visit a nearby tower, |
| [00:24.58] | And climbing to the top, |
| [00:27.36] | Will throw myself off |
| [00:30.07] | In an effort to make it clear to who |
| [00:33.30] | Ever what it's like when your shattered |
| [00:36.20] | Left standing in the lurch, at a church |
| [00:39.78] | where people saying, |
| [00:41.84] | My God that's tough, she stood him up! |
| [00:44.89] | No point in us remaining. |
| [00:48.02] | May as well go home. |
| [00:50.55] | As I did on my own, |
| [00:53.16] | Alone again, naturally |
| [00:57.63] | |
| [00:59.40] | To think that only yesterday, |
| [01:02.05] | I was cheerful, bright and gay, |
| [01:05.02] | Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do, |
| [01:07.79] | The role I was about to play |
| [01:10.91] | But as if to knock me down, |
| [01:13.65] | Reality came around |
| [01:16.21] | And without so much as a mere touch, |
| [01:19.40] | Cut me into little pieces |
| [01:22.46] | Leaving me to doubt, |
| [01:24.96] | All about God and His mercy |
| [01:28.01] | For if He really does exist |
| [01:31.25] | Why did He desert me |
| [01:34.01] | In my hour of need? |
| [01:36.69] | I truly am indeed, |
| [01:39.62] | Alone again, naturally |
| [01:43.78] | |
| [01:45.53] | It seems to me that |
| [01:47.07] | There are more hearts |
| [01:48.64] | Broken in the world |
| [01:50.57] | That can't be mended |
| [01:52.40] | |
| [01:53.33] | Left unattended |
| [01:56.17] | What do we do? What do we do? |
| [02:03.38] | |
| [02:43.48] | Alone again, naturally |
| [02:49.61] | Now looking back over the years, |
| [02:51.92] | And what ever else that appears |
| [02:54.67] | I remember I cried when my father died |
| [02:57.51] | Never wishing to hide the tears |
| [03:00.45] | And at sixty-five years old, |
| [03:03.44] | My mother, God rest her soul, |
| [03:06.25] | Couldn't understand, why the only man |
| [03:09.32] | She had ever loved had been taken |
| [03:12.41] | Leaving her to start with a heart |
| [03:15.86] | So badly broken |
| [03:18.03] | Despite encouragement from me |
| [03:20.85] | No words were ever spoken |
| [03:24.04] | And when she passed away |
| [03:26.54] | I cried and cried all day |
| [03:29.42] | Alone again, naturally |
| [03:35.36] | Alone again, naturally |
| [03:39.65] |
