Alone Again (Naturally) - Knights Bridge

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 saying 'my God

that's tough she's 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- well 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 the world that can't be mended.

Left unattended

What do we do?

What do we do?

Alone again, naturally.

Now looking back over the years

And whatever else that appears.

I remember I cried when my father died

Never wishing to hide the tears.

And at sixty-five years old

My mother 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

Alone again, naturally.

Alone again, naturally.
