In a little while from now, if I'm not feeling any less so
I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby town
And climbing to the top will throw myself off
In an effort to make clear to whoever what it's like
When you're shattered, left standing in the lurch
At a church where people were saying, my God, that's tough
She stood him up, no point in us remaining
We may as well go on as I did on my own
Alone again, naturally
To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and gay
Looking forward to what I 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
If he really does exist
Why did he do that?

He deserved 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?
How can we choose?
Where to turn?

How can we turn over?

To understood me?
For included in my heart


For me, both makes my mind
False with the scenarios
On both ends of the sea
Uh, I have no men working
I'm gone you, don't you know
But why this pleasant mirth
Alone again, naturally
Looking back over the years
Whatever else there 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
When she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again
Naturally
Alone again
Naturally
