O’Connor - Eleonor Rigby lyrics

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

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