Joan Baez - Eleanor Rigby lyrics

[Joan Baez - Eleanor Rigby lyrics]

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the
Church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream wait's at the window
Wearing the face that she keeps in
A jar by the door who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
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?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

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

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
