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 an effort to make it clear to who
Ever what it's like when your shattered

Left standing in the lurch, at a church
Where people 're saying,
"My God that's tough, she stood him up!

No point in us remaining.
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, but 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,
All about God and His mercy

For 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?


(instrumental break)


Now looking back over the years,
And what ever else that appears
I remember I cried when my father died

Never wishing to have cried 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
