|
[Refrain] |
|
Ah, look at all the lonely people! |
|
Ah, look at all the lonely people! |
|
[Verse 1] |
|
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice |
|
In the church where a wedding has been |
|
Lives in a dream |
|
Waits at the window |
|
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door |
|
Who is it for? |
|
[Chorus] |
|
All the lonely people |
|
Where do they all come from? |
|
All the lonely people |
|
Where do they all belong? |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Father McKenzie |
|
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear |
|
No one comes near |
|
Look at him working |
|
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there |
|
What does he care? |
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
All the lonely people |
|
Where do they all come from? |
|
All the lonely people |
|
Where do they all belong? |
|
[Refrain] |
|
Ah, look at all the lonely people! |
|
Ah, look at all the lonely people! |
|
[Verse 3] |
|
Eleanor Rigby died in the church |
|
And was buried along with her name |
|
Nobody came |
|
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt |
|
From his hands as he walks from the grave |
|
No one was saved |
|
[Chorus] |
|
All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people!) |
|
Where do they all come from? |
|
All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people!) |
|
Where do they all belong? |
