[00:11.190] |
In a little while from now |
[00:13.830] |
If I'm not feeling any less sour |
[00:16.420] |
I promise myself to treat myself |
[00:19.340] |
And visit a nearby tower |
[00:22.130] |
And climbing to the top, will throw myself off |
[00:27.420] |
In an effort to make it clear |
[00:29.760] |
To who ever what it's like when you're shattered |
[00:33.570] |
Left standing in the lurch at a church |
[00:36.800] |
Where people saying, "My God, that's tough |
[00:41.310] |
She's stood him up no point in us remaining |
[00:44.950] |
We may as well go home" |
[00:49.890] |
As I did on my own alone again, naturally |
[00:56.310] |
To think that only yesterday |
[00:59.400] |
I was cheerful, bright and gay |
[01:02.540] |
Looking forward to well who wouldn't do |
[01:04.950] |
The role I was about to play |
[01:06.580] |
But as if to knock me down reality came around |
[01:09.870] |
And without so much, as a mere touch |
[01:13.420] |
Cut me into little pieces leaving me to doubt |
[01:17.930] |
Talk about God in His mercy |
[01:23.090] |
Who if He really does exist |
[01:26.050] |
Why did he desert me in my hour of need |
[01:29.800] |
I truly am indeed, alone again, naturally |
[01:39.690] |
It seems to me that there are more hearts |
[01:43.390] |
Broken in the world that can't be mended |
[01:47.290] |
Left unattended |
[01:51.550] |
What do we do? What do we do? |
[02:38.990] |
Alone again, naturally |
[02:42.280] |
Now looking back over the years |
[02:44.940] |
And whatever else that appears |
[02:47.370] |
I remember I cried when my father died |
[02:49.290] |
Never wishing to hide the tears |
[02:52.490] |
And at sixty-five years old |
[02:54.790] |
My mother, God rest her soul |
[02:58.130] |
Couldn't understand why the only man |
[03:00.320] |
She had ever loved had been taken |
[03:03.510] |
Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken |
[03:07.270] |
Despite encouragement from me |
[03:10.860] |
No words were ever spoken and when she passed away |
[03:14.360] |
I cried and cried all day, alone again, naturally |
[03:24.950] |
Alone again, naturally |
