Gilbert & Sullivan Alone And Yet Alive
In a little while from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promised myself I'd treat myself and visit A nearby tower
And climbing to the top
Would throw myself off
In an effort to, make it clear to who
Ever know what it's like when you've been.
Shattered
Extending in the lurch where people are
Saying my God that's tough, she stood him up, no point in us remaining
I.may as well go home, as I did on my own
Alone again, naturally
To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful bright and gay
Looking forward to, I wouldn't do
The role I was about to play, and as if to
Knock me down, reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt, talk about
God in His mercy, for if He really does exist Why did He desert me
In my hour of need, I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally
It seems to me that there are more.hearts
Broken in the world that can't be mended
Left unattended
What do we do, we do we do
Alone again, naturally
Now looking back over the years
At whatever else that appears
I remember I cried whenmy father died
Never wishing to hide.my tears
And at 65 years old, my mother, God rest her soul, couldn't understand why the
Only man she had ever loved had been
Taken, leaving her to startwith her heart
So badly broken, despite encouragement
From.me, no words were ever spoken
And when. She passed away, I cried and
Cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally
