CMAT - Alone Again (Naturally Apple Music Home Session) lyrics

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 whoever
What it's like when you're shattered
Left standing in the lurch, at a church
Where people are 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

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

And 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 and His mercy
For if He really does exist
Why would He desert me

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

Looking back over the years
And whatever else might appear
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
In spite of encouragement from me
No words were ever spoken

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