In a little while from now, if I'm not feeling any less sour
I promised myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top will throw myself off
In effort to make it clear to who
Ever what it's like when you're shattered
Left standing in the lurch at a church with people saying
"My god that's rough, she took him up, no point in us remaining
We might 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 but who wouldn't do the role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down reality came around
And without as much as a mere touch cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt, talk about God and all 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

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'd 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
