Eleanor Rigby

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church
Where the wedding has been - lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing a face that
She keeps in a jar by the door - who is it for

All the lonely people where do they all come from
All the lonely people where do they all belong

Father McKenzie, writing the words of a sermon
That no-one will hear no-one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks in the
Night when there's nobody there - what does he care
All the lonely people, where do they all come from
All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried
Along with her name - nobody came
Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt from his hands
As he walks from the grave no-one was saved

All the lonely people, where do they all come from
All the lonely people, where do they all belong
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

(John Lennon / Paul McCartney )
