She had ever loved had been taken
In an effort to, make clear to whoever
And in my hour of need
What it's like when you're shattered
What do we do?
And visit a nearby tower
Alone again, naturally
Broken in the world
Throw myself off
Leaving me to doubt
And when she passed away
My God, that's tough, she stood him up
May as well go home
Why did He desert me?
That there are more hearts
Despite encouragement from me
No point in us remaining
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
It seems to me
The role I was about to play
But, as if to knock me down
That can't be mended
Now, looking back over the years
Who, if He really does exist
Leaving her to start
And whatever else that appears
What do we do?
I was cheerful, bright and gay
And climbing to the top
Left standing in the lurch
Alone again, naturally
Couldn't understand why the only man
To think that only yesterday
At a church where people saying
Cut me into little pieces
I truly am, indeed
And at sixty-five years old
Alone again, naturally
Looking forward to wouldn't do
Reality came around
With a heart so badly broken
No words were ever spoken
I promised myself, to treat myself
My mother, God rest her soul
I remember I cried when my father died
As I did on my own
And without so much as a mere touch
Never wishing to hide the tears
Left unattended
Talk about God in His mercy
