[00:11.55]In a little while from now
[00:14.40]If I'm not feeling any less sour
[00:17.11]I promised myself
[00:18.75]to treat myself
[00:20.11]And visit a nearby tower
[00:22.74]And climbing to the top
[00:25.47]Will throw myself off
[00:28.42]In an effort to
[00:29.70]make it clear to who
[00:31.09]Ever what it's like
[00:32.46]when your shattered
[00:34.10]Left standing in the lurch
[00:36.23]at a church
[00:37.61]Where people saying
[00:39.79]My God that's tough
[00:41.01]she stood him up
[00:42.29]No point in us remaining
[00:45.31]May as well go home
[00:47.79]As I did on my own
[00:50.60]Alone again naturally
[00:56.38]To think that only yesterday
[00:58.89]I was cheerful bright and gay
[01:01.70]Looking forward to
[01:03.37]wouldn't do
[01:04.77]The role I was about to play
[01:07.32]But as if to knock me down
[01:10.10]Reality came around
[01:12.89]And without so much
[01:14.37]as a mere touch
[01:15.70]Cut me into little pieces
[01:18.81]Leaving me to doubt All about
[01:22.21]God and His mercy
[01:24.60]For if He really does exist
[01:27.16]Why did He desert me
[01:29.98]In my hour of need
[01:32.50]I truly am indeed
[01:35.40]Alone again naturally
[01:41.08]It seems to me that
[01:42.49]There are more hearts
[01:43.74]Broken in the world
[01:46.02]That can't be mended
[01:48.50]Left unattended
[01:51.34]What do we do What do we do
[02:36.92]Alone again naturally
[02:42.74]Now looking back over the years
[02:44.96]And what ever else that appears
[02:47.73]I remember
[02:48.73]I cried when my father died
[02:50.60]Never wishing to have cried the tears
[02:53.51]And at sixty five years old
[02:56.17]My mother God rest her soul
[02:59.07]Couldn't understand
[03:00.49]why the only man
[03:01.71]She had ever loved had been taken
[03:04.82]Leaving her to start with a heart
[03:08.06]So badly broken
[03:10.22]Despite encouragement from me
[03:12.98]No words were ever spoken
[03:16.20]when she passed away
[03:18.50]I cried and cried all day
[03:21.48]Alone again naturally
[03:27.03]Alone again naturally
