Refrein:
Ah, look at all the lonely people (2x)

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?

Refrein 2:
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?

Refrein

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
