Alone Again (Naturally) [feat. Midland]

Composed by：Raymond O’Sullivan

In a little while from now

If I'm not feeling

Any less sour

I promise 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 whomever

What it's like

When you're shattered

Left standing in

The lurch

At a church where

People 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

Well 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

Talk about God in

His mercy

Who 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

Alone again

Naturally

Looking back

Over the years

And whatever

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

Naturally

Alone again naturally
