Don’t Let It Fade Away

Wandering Down Abbey Road

When I look around, I see so many lonely people. Where do they all come from?

How many of them had someone to love, but threw it all away looking for something better? How many of them put more thought into impressing their friends or neighbors than they put into romantic ideas for the one who loved them? How many just didn’t even try?

When I look at the beautiful woman sitting across from me, I still see the girl that I fell in love with many years ago. Life and relationships are not always easy, and there have been many ups and downs, but I can’t imagine my life without her.

If your path has already separated you from your love, call them, or write to them. It’s not too late to express your true feelings to them. There’s a very good chance that they miss you as much as you miss them.

Life is too short to live it alone.

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

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the 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?

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

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?
