it goes somehing like
in a little while from now, wen im not feelin any less sour,(i think) i promised my self to treat myself and visit a near by town... then .......my god thats tuff she stood him up no point in us remaining then it goes.....alone agian naturally
something like that? then in the end he talks about being all lonely and stuff?
Actually that's "I promised my self to treat myself and visit a nearby tower,
Climbing to the top
To throw myself off....."
It's about feeling suicidal.
In a little while from now
If Iâ ™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 who
Ever what itâ ™s like when youâ ™re shattered
Left standing in the lurch at a church
Where people saying: "My God, thatâ ™s tough
She's stood him 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 well wouldnâ ™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
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 canâ ™t be mended
Left unattended
What do we do? What do we do?
Alone again, naturally
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,
Couldnâ ™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

Raymond Edward O'Sullivan (born 1 December 1946, Waterford, County Waterford, Ireland) known professionally as Gilbert O'Sullivan, is an Irish singer-songwriter, best known for his early 1970s hits "Alone Again (Naturally)", "Clair" and "Get Down".
Early in his life O'Sullivan's family moved to Swindon Wiltshire England and here O'Sullivan began to develop an interest in music and art. At Swindon Art College in 1963 he met Rick Davies who would later become a member of Supertramp.
O'Sullivan signed a five-year contract with CBS Records in 1967, where Stephen Shane, then Professional Manager at CBS's April/Blackwood publishing division, originally signed him and redesignated him Gilbert O'Sullivan, a pun on the names of the Savoy Opera writing team of Gilbert and Sullivan. However, after two unsuccessful singles with CBS, and one with the Irish label Major Minor, he sent some demo tapes to Gordon Mills, the manager of Tom Jones and Engelbert Humperdinck, whereupon he signed with Mills' label, MAM Records. His eye-catching visual image comprised a pudding basin haircut, cloth cap and short trousers, and was O'Sullivan's own idea. Mills reportedly hated it, but O'Sullivan insisted on going with it for a couple of years, after which a more modern look took over, in which he often wore a sweater bearing a large letter 'G'. At the end of 1970, O'Sullivan achieved his first UK Top 10 hit with "Nothing Rhymed", which reached No. 8 (No. 1 in The Netherlands), and enjoyed nearly five years of major success. This run incorporated thirteen more hit singles, six of which reached the UK Top 10, plus four Top 10 albums, including Himself (1971), Back To Front (1972), I'm A Writer Not A Fighter (1973) and A Stranger In My Own Back Yard (1974). In 1972, his international star rose after his self-penned ballad, "Alone Again (Naturally)", a No. 3 hit in UK, became a chart-topper in the U.S., spending six weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and selling nearly two million copies there.
