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 who
Ever what it's like when you're shattered
Left standing in the lurch
At a church where people are saying
My God, that's tough, He 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 this world that can't be mended
Left unattended
What do we do?
What do we do?
Yeeeah
Now, looking back over the years
And whatever else that appears
I remember I cried when my daddy died
Never wishing to hide the tears
And at sixty-five years old
My mamma, 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
I say I was alone again
Naturally
I found I was by myself, by myself
Naturally
I was alone, alone again
Naturally
I was just looking around to somebody to be my friend
Naturally
I was alone again
Naturally
