The Virgin Suicides movie - Alone Again, Naturally lyrics

rate me

Song by Gilbert O'Sullivan<br /><br>

In a little while from now<br>

If I’m not feeling any less sour<br>

I promise myself to treat myself<br>

And visit a nearby tower<br>

And climbing to the top will throw myself off<br>

In an effort to make it clear to who<br>

Ever what it’s like when you’re shattered<br>

Left standing in the lurch at a church<br>

Where people saying: "My God, that’s tough<br>

She's stood him up"<br>

No point in us remaining<br>

We may as well go home<br>

As I did on my own<br>

Alone again, naturally<br>

<br>

To think that only yesterday<br>

I was cheerful, bright and gay<br>

Looking forward to well wouldn’t do<br>

The role I was about to play<br>

But as if to knock me down<br>

Reality came around<br>

And without so much, as a mere touch<br>

Cut me into little pieces<br>

Leaving me to doubt<br>

Talk about God and His mercy<br>

Or if He really does exist<br>

Why did He desert me in my hour of need<br>

I truly am indeed Alone again, naturally<br>

<br>

It seems to me that there are more hearts<br>

broken in the world that can’t be mended<br>

Left unattended<br>

What do we do? What do we do?<br>

<br>

Alone again, naturally<br>

Now looking back over the years<br>

And whatever else that appears<br>

I remember I cried when my father died<br>

Never wishing to hide the tears<br>

And at sixty-five years old<br>

My mother, God rest her soul,<br>

Couldn’t understand why the only man<br>

She had ever loved had been taken<br>

Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken<br>

Despite encouragement from me<br>

No words were ever spoken<br>

And when she passed away<br>

I cried and cried all day<br>

Alone again, naturally<br>

Alone again, naturally<br>

<br>
