Lyrics

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice
In the church where her 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 Mackenzie writin' 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
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby died in the church
And was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father Mackenzie wipin' 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?
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice
In the church where her 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?
