[00:01.17]Neil Diamond - Alone Again （Naturally）
[00:12.75]In a little while from now,
[00:14.88]
[00:15.44]If I'm not feeling anyless sour ,
[00:18.54]I promise myself to treat myself
[00:21.42]nearby And visit a tower
[00:24.65]And climbing the to top will throw myself off,
[00:29.20]
[00:30.27]In an effort to make it clear to who
[00:33.20]Ever what it's like you're when shattered.
[00:35.86]
[00:36.48]Left standing in the lurch at a church,
[00:40.04]Where people saying 'my God
[00:42.99]that's tough she's stood him up
[00:45.30]No point in us remaining
[00:48.54]We may as well go home'.
[00:50.30]
[00:51.36]As I did on my own.
[00:53.49]
[00:54.36]Alone again, naturally.
[00:57.55]
[01:00.49]To think that only yesterday
[01:02.04]
[01:03.17]I was cheerful, bright and gay,
[01:05.11]
[01:06.11]Looking forward to- well who wouldn't do
[01:08.99]
[01:09.49]The role I was about to play.
[01:11.36]
[01:12.55]But as if to knock me down,
[01:14.23]
[01:15.36]Reality came around.
[01:16.99]
[01:18.17]And without so much
[01:19.74]As a mere touch
[01:21.24]Cut me into little pieces
[01:23.92]
[01:24.61]Leaving me to doubt
[01:26.04]
[01:27.17]Talk about God in his mercy
[01:29.42]
[01:30.43]Who if he really does exist,
[01:32.87]
[01:33.49]Why did he desert me in my hour of need?
[01:38.27]
[01:39.40]I truly am indeed
[01:41.27]
[01:42.39]Alone again, naturally.
[01:46.08]
[01:48.46]It seems to me that there are more hearts
[01:51.71]Broken in the world that can't be mended.
[01:55.11]
[01:56.42]Left unattende
[01:58.17]
[01:59.48]What do we do?
[02:00.79]
[02:02.54]What do do?we
[02:04.05]
[02:54.68]Now looking back over the years
[02:56.37]
[02:57.30]And whatever else that appears.
[02:59.30]
[03:00.12]I remember I cried when my father died
[03:03.11]Never wishing to hide the tears.
[03:05.24]
[03:06.24]And at sixty-five years old
[03:07.93]
[03:09.32]My mother God rest her soul.
[03:10.93]
[03:12.06]Couldn't understand why the only man
[03:15.18]She had ever loved had been taken,
[03:17.62]
[03:18.45]Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken,
[03:23.66]
[03:24.34]Despite encouragemant from me no words were ever spoken
[03:29.09]
[03:30.47]And when she passed away
[03:31.97]
[03:33.34]I cried and cried all day
[03:35.22]
[03:36.41]Alone again, naturally.
[03:39.84]
[03:42.41]Alone again, natually.
