[Verse 1]
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

Standing at the top
Will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to whoever
Just what it's like when you're shattered

Left standing in a lurch, in a church
Where people saying
"My God that's tough, she stood him up
No point in us remaining"

"We may as well go home"
As I did on my own
Alone again, naturally

[Verse 2]
To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and gay
Looking forward to, who wouldn't do
The words I was about to say
And as if to knock me down
Reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch
Cut me into little piеces

Leaving me to doubt
All about God and His mеrcy
For if He really does exist
Then why did He desert me

In my hour of need?
I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally

[Flute solo]

[Verse 3]
Looking back over the years
And what ever 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 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

When she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again
Alone, naturally
