It is an old one, but what is it called?
There is a song I have heard on the radio several times now and I always miss the title of it, and even the artist. It sounds like a song from the Beattle's era, and probably is. It talks about "all the lonely people, where do they all come from" and has one verse talking about a priest writing a sermon that no one will hear. Please if anyone knows, please, please help me. It has been bothering me for ages!
Thank you, all! I feel a bit silly now, but thank you all very much.

Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles
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?

It actually is the Beatles, I think the title of the song is "All the Lonely People" I would have to check my album at home to be sure.

Yea it's the Beatles.. but there is a really good remake by Thrice off of their album "If We Could Only See Us Now". Not sure if you would like them at all but it's a fun interpretation and i thought i'd share.
