Alone again, naturally

There was an old song, "alone again, naturally":
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,
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

This song is on my mind today. Mom and dad are gone. Mark's in NY, Jamie went back to school, Jeff is at work. Here I am, alone again naturally.
Gotta find a way to be happy on my own.
