Song lyrics

Send "Eleanor Rigby" ringtones to your cell

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?

78 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Brilliant. Shits all over any songs that Lennon has written (in my opinion) apart from I AM THE WALRUS.

3 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I think it's about two people of the same church, the father and some woman who helps, it could be a nun. And that they're lonely each other but never had the courage to talk with each other. Anyway I surely love this song as much as Blackbird, my two favourite Beatles songs.

6 posts	I am disappointed that I didn't get to use this song in my final paper. I did get to submit the questions, but never really had enough to go much further than explaining the idea. Maybe the future will change that. I enjoyed reading the comments made in the post. Congrats to all of you on your good taste.

84 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal cool song. I like both versions theirs and thrice's. I think that the lyrics are amazing. Poetic even. My favorite lines are " Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave.No-one was saved." Awesome.

8 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Great Song! I like it, sounds like they are interpreting the world going through a stage of depression... Kind of like the world I am currently leaving... I this song, along with 'Yesterday' is helping me realise I am not alone in my hour of darkness! The Beatles have inspired me to be a better person... And to the people who are saying the Beatles are all talent-less stoners if that is all they are then too bad! I am still following in all their foot steps! I don't care if I get locked up! They are the greatest and I want the world to know!!! Rock on Beatles! My poetry, songs and music are all similar to the Beatles style (although I am Australian and a female) The Beatles are my life!!! BYE!

64 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is very deep. It makes me think about all the people at school that are put down and ignored and have no friends because of a stupid reason and makes me hate spoiled bratty teens. It has a spine-tingling feel to it that you can't get from other artists.

14 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I love this one. Um, about that eleanor. In the "Free as a bird" video you'll see Paul walks on the church mark and there is a grave there. It says "Eleanor Rigby". This is from Liverpool. You get it all? (Ps: Paul McCartney is dead.)
