[** Originally by Gilbert O'Sullivan:]
3
In a little while from now*
4
If I'm not feeling any less sour
5
I promise myself to treat myself
6
And visit a nearby tower
7
And climbing to the top
8
Will throw myself off
9
In an effort to
10
Make it clear to whoever
11
Wants to know what it's like
12
When you're shattered
13
Left standing in the lurch at a church
14
Were people saying, My God, that's tough
15
She stood him up
16
No point in us remaining
17
We may as well go home
18
As I did on my own
19
Alone again, naturally
20
To think that only yesterday
21
I was cheerful, bright and gay
22
Looking forward to who wouldn't do
23
The role I was about to play
24
But as if to knock me down
25
Reality came around
26
And without so much as a mere touch
27
Cut me into little pieces
28
Leaving me to doubt
29
Talk about, God in His mercy
30
Oh, if he really does exist
31
Why did he desert me
32
In my hour of need
33
I truly am indeed
34
Alone again, naturally
35
It seems to me that there are more hearts
36
Broken in the world that can't be mended
37
Left unattended
38
What do we do
39
What do we do
40
[*Instrumental Interlude:]
41
Alone again, naturally
42
Looking back over the years
43
And whatever else that appears
44
I remember I cried when my father died
45
Never wishing to hide the tears
46
And at sixty-five years old
47
My mother, God rest her soul
48
Couldn't understand why the only man
49
She had ever loved had been taken
50
Leaving her to start
51
With a heart so badly broken
52
Despite encouragement from me
53
No words were ever [Spoken]
54
And when she passed away
55
I cried and cried all day
56
Alone again, naturally
57
Alone again, naturally
