Nina Simone, Gilbert O’Sullivan

I remember this afternoon
When my sister came into the room
She refused to say how my father was
But I knew he’d be dying soon.

And I was oh so glad, and it was oh so sad
That I realized that I despised this man I once called father.
In his hanging on, with fingers clutching
His body now just eighty-eight pounds
Blinded eyes still searching
For some distant dream that had faded away at the seams.
Dying alone, naturally.

I was his favourite child, I had him a little while
Just as long as I could play the piano and smile a little smile
Just when I needed him most, he was already a ghost
And for all my life there where promises and they always have been broken

Leaving me alone with all my troubles
Not ever once touching me and saying
“Daugther, I’ll help you get over.”
Now he’s fadig away and I’m glad to say,
He’s dying at last. Naturally.

It’s a very sad thing to see that my mother with all her heart
Believes the words that the Bible said “Til death do us two part”.
For her that was forever and ay, he decided her night and day
How could some English words so small affect someone so strangely?

Taking her away from us, her soul included
She might es well be gone with him, all the children are excluded.
Loneliness is hell, I know so well,
For I’m alone. Naturally.

I waited three weeks for him to die
I waited three weeks for him to die
Every night he was calling on me
I wouldn’t go to him.
I waited three weeks for him to die
Three weeks for him to die.

And after he died, after he died
Every night I went out, every night I had a flight.
It didn’t matter who it was with
‘Cos I knew what it was about.
And if you could read between lines, my Dad and I close as flies.
I loved him then and I loved him still, that’s why my heart’s so broken.

Leaving me to doubt God in His Mercy
And if He really does exist then why does He desert me?
When he passed away I smoked and drank all day,
Alone. Again. Naturally.

In a little while from now
If I’m not feeling any less sour
I promise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top, will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to whoever
What’s it like when you’re shattered
Left standing in the lurch at a church
Where peolple saying, “My God, that’sa tough”
“He stood her up”
“No point in us remaining”
“We 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 who wouldn’t do
The role I was about to play
But 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 and His mercy
Who if He really does exist
Why does He desert me?
In my hour of need I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally

Seems to me that there are more hearts
Broken in the world that can’t be mended
Left unattended
What do we do, what do we do?

Looking back over the years
And whatever else that appears
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the 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 start with a 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

It’s who we are
It’s where we’re going
And it’s where we’ve been

In a little while from now
If i’m not feeling any less sour
I promise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top i will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to who
What its like when your love shatters
Standing in the lurch in a church
Where people saying: "my god, that’s tough
She’s stood him up"
No point in us remaining
We might as well go home
As i did on my own
Alone again, naturally

To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and oh so gay
Looking forward to well wouldn’t do
The role i was about to play
But as if to knock me down
My reality came around
And without so much, as a mere touch
Put me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt
All about god and his mercy
Or 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? do we even care?

It’s who we are
It’s where we’re going
And it’s where we’ve been

Now looking back over the years
And whatever else has occurred
I remember i cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears

And at sixty-five 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 start with a 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

It’s who we are
It’s where we’re going
And it’s where we’ve been
