THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR) :: View topic

Now 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 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

Alone Again, Naturally - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Love listening to Bruce Springsteen, but some of his lyrics really kill me nowadays. A little too apt and close to the bone, I suppose. "Because there's just different people coming down here now, and they see things in different ways, And soon everything we've known will just be swept away." (Independence Day) - "Now, some guys, they just give up living, And start dying little by little, piece by piece." (Racing in the Street)
