Eleanor Rigby lyrics:

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?
