LYRICS
I went walking home alone
Past all the bars and corner delis When I heard God call out my name And he said Hey
Let’s grab a beer
It’s awful late
We both right here
And we didn’t even have to pay Cause God is God and he’s revered And I said
Why doesn’t it get better with time I’m becoming all alone again
Stay, stay, stay
Let the ones who want it bad
Get all the things that make them better Let the ones who don’t care feel a thrill And I just want to ride
But this whole world
It makes me carsick
Stop the meter sir
You have a heart
Why don’t you use it
Why doesn’t it get better with time I’m becoming all alone again
Stay, stay, stay
I went walking home alone
past all the bars and corner delis When I asked God
Please call
Call my name
And I said Hey
Let’s grab a beer
It’s awful late
I know you’re here
And we wouldn’t even have to pay Cause You are God and You’re revered
Why doesn’t it get better with time I’m becoming all alone again
Stay, stay, stay
I’m becoming all alone again
Stay, stay, stay

a new regina spektor album....the earth is healing 💗
Amen!!!!
I love all of you
Preach! Regina has been my muse since 2008
Wait, for real. Is it time?
@@steadycushions in June, she gave us this sneak peek though :)
Oh, Regina. That's so beautiful and sad.
My eyes are doing a thing...
I GENUINELY believe - and I am not exaggerating - that Regina's new album will heal this world and make it a slightly bit better this year
You're wrong.
It could if only everyone could hear it.
Heal the world from what? It has gotten better with time, you just whine much more much like a spoiled child.
I'd like to think so, but too few seem to know this outstanding woman and her voice. I guess the rest of us who have heard her will just have to do her uprising spirit justice!
If it heals a part of our hearts, then it's healed a part of this world. We just need to do our best to pass the healing along
It's like hearing from an old, old friend after so much time has passed.
Hello again, Regina.
My, you're beautiful as ever.
what a perfect comment
Love it❤️ My thoughts exactly! (:
he went to visit an old old friend, and it was long long overdue...
Thanks for speaking my thoughts!
Who you callin "old, old"? 😅
"Don't call it a come back"
- LL Cool J
"Why doesn't it get better with time?"
dang, I felt that.
Regina, againnnnnn Lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I think I’m a bit late to discovering Regina Spektor but this song is so beautiful
Never too late. Just in time to catch up and not have to wait for new music. Digest slowly and savor it.. what am I saying you already will
new music from Regina 💖🥰
it play on music suggestion and this is the best song suggestion i want!
killin it queen
Just what we all needed 💕
Какая же красота я вся в слезах спасибо дорогая за такую прелесть скорее бы альбом 😭😭
Lovely and moving as always!
Me encantas Regina.
Thank you, we all needed this ♥️
Beautiful
This is my early birthday present. Amazing. 😭🥳
thanks for this
Nothing starts the day like a new regina song to cry to :)
Great to hear you back ❤️❤️❤️
This is awesome, so excited for the new album!
Wonderful
Я очень люблю тебя ❤️❤️❤️
Here we go....
Oh hi there, song… What’s up?!?💙
Omg😍🥺🥺🥺
Apple Music when?
YASSS
this made me very emotional. i can't believe i'll get to witness you releasing new music as an adult. i grew up listening to your music, you are pretty much part of my childhood. (which i am very much grateful of)
you are indeed a gift from heaven.. thank you for making such music. you are a brilliant musician.
no words.. music and poetry in one 🤍
you don't know how many times you saved me. much love. xx
how the heck didn’t I even know about her though
If she’s back, I gonna stay a little longer.
same
I can't believe how Regina always retains that vividly magical hue in each of her songs. Her voice is so limpid and pure, it just lifts you to the point you're floating over space and time. Can't wait for the new record, it's been a while! What a wonderful artist she is
Well said
you know is gonna be a good song when regina talks about/with god.
btw, instrumentals are amazing!!
Damn right 😂🙌🏼
i missed you so much im crying
No puedo creer que hayas regresado. Estoy muy muy emocionado y contento. Una enorme sorpresa para mí. Adorarte muchísimo y tu música me transmite una paz hermosísima.
Oh my gosh, I literally just stepped out of the office to listen to this. I’ll risk unemployment at this point just to get more tunes from Mme. Rejinki. 💚
I took a good 10 minutes just ignoring work, being excited, and listening. I think we all needed this 🕊
It's incredible, my mom pass away 7 months ago, and my best friend moved away two weeks later looking for better, so now I walk alone a lot and live alone, and just keep wondering why the sadness of mom passing won't heal with time, I walk through the streets with delis and caffes, and think about God a lot, Is like she wrote this song about me ✨🦅❤️🌿
7 months is no time at all. It's still so fresh. It will improve, but slowly, over many years and repeated passing of notable dates and holidays.
Can you try ways to meet new people...Meetup groups...volunteer work...attending book readings at libraries or bookstores etc? Also, when I feel alone, I like to think of nature as a 'friend'. Look up at the trees...feel the breeze...watch the clouds move... feed the birds...see the bees pollinating flowers...see the squirrels play... etc. All of nature, wild animals etc are 'alone', and yet One. And so too are we. We are all a part of this. And humans, unlike animals, can use their brains and creativity to come up with ways to become more engaged with their fellow humans. And if for any reason that doesn't work (maybe because of where you live, difficulty connecting with people etc) then try to focus on connecting with nature and doing some volunteering. ❤
I love Regina…always have.
But this song hits me extremely hard right now, more than usual. Ive been dealing with overwhelming loneliness, despite being in a crowd of people.
I find myself asking God “why isnt it getting better..”
I promise you that you aren’t the only one feeling alone. I don’t know if that makes it better or worse, but it isn’t just you. Hang in there. Try to find things that bring you joy on your own. Shared experiences are wonderful, but if you can’t have them at the moment, have some experiences for yourself. You deserve joy. Hang in there.
That line could be quoted a thousand times and every time, it hits me harder. Another two lines that are so impactful are "And I just want to ride, but this whole world, it makes me carsick. Stop the meter sir, you have a heart, why don't you use it?"
From the get go, the title "Becoming all alone again" hits home because that's how it feels, it isn't just becoming alone, but becoming alone again each time.
I would assume you and I are close to the same age, but the amount of things your music has gotten me thru is truly astonishing. From being in a bad relationship, to my dad dying, to become an addict, then getting clean, then another shitty relationship, then a child, and now being a single mom... your music has carried me all the way from high-school to 35. Well done. I appreciate you.
That's the power of good wholesome music.Music has brought me through hell and back to home.Great post.Stay positive.
When she said...
"Let the ones who want it bad get all the things that make 'em better, Let the ones who don't care feel a thrill"
Literally made me shed some tears. So powerful.
Oh god. THIS. so powerful!
Fun fact about these lines, she's taking inspiration from a very old russian song that she covered in one of the bonus tracks off "What We Saw from the Cheap Seats" called "The Prayer of François Villon (Molitva)."
The song's verses ask that God give certain things to certain people.
"Господи, дай ты каждому Чего у него нет/Умному дай голову/Трусливому дай коня/Дай счастливому денег/И не забудь про меня
"God, give everyone what they don't have/Give the wise one a head/Give the coward a horse/give the happy one money/and don't forget about me"
I love how in "The Prayer of François Villon" he's begging to not be forgotten, but here the speaker just wants "to ride." To me, it's a resignation to what she does get given and a trust that the ride will be what it's meant to.
It's so beautiful to me to hear her influences coming out in this song. She's taking the art that made her her and spinning it into something all her own. For all my fellow lyric nerds out there I recommend you translate "The Prayer of François Villon" so that you can consider these lyrics through that lense.
I feel so grateful to be able to know russian and wanted to share this little easter egg with everyone.
@@princejohnny1467 тоже хотел написать про Молитву Окуджавы, но раз уже написали, лан не буду. И вот пасхалка для тебя), про название "Молитва Франсуа Вийону"
Б. Окуджава: "Никакого отношения к Франсуа Вийону эта песня не имеет. Я написал стихи о себе, о своей жизни. Но в редакции не захотели это так печатать, и я назвал их «Молитва Франсуа Вийона». Но это было давно, теперь уже так не делают."
Изначально она называлась просто "Молитва"
@@princejohnny1467 This is really really cool and I appreciate you so much for posting this.
😭😭😭 Regina!!! How do you always manage to find the most tender parts of my soul, and lay them out with your signature combo of wit, story-telling, frank sincerity, and depth? Also, being raised on classical music and having played in many orchestras, I love the sweeping grandiose classical vibes. Especially juxtaposed with the simplicity of music during the conversation with God. Sometimes you feel so much, but there's very little to be said. Little words that mean everything, like, "Stay, stay, stay." For me, when I chase down all my emotions to the root, it always seems to wind down to the fact that I just want to be with God, and can rarely get as close as I'd like. Thank you for expressing this so beautifully. ❤️
This comment is great.
💕bawled my eyes out. She can put into song things I can’t say. Reminds me of The book of Job
😟 Im in tears. This meant a lot to hear. Divine timing I say. 🌟
Is it just me or does this song have a whole new level of poignancy now? Aren't we all just in various stages of becoming all alone again? And, no, it doesn't get easier with time! But music and art can provide moments of relief amidst the pain of loss. Rest in peace Ilya. I hope Regina is finding some of the same comfort and peace she has given to all of us through her art during this time.
I like to think that even though were "all just in various stages of becoming all alone again," it's actually that were all just a part of a big mosaic or droplet of the ocean, trying to find ourselves in a mass were all connected to (for better and worse).
Is anyone else here in their early 30s having had this lady become part of themselves in their teens.
I've missed you
Красота!!!!
You’ve released a new album my first year of middle school, high school, college and now (hopefully) grad school! I take it as a welcome sign that your music is always there for me during new stages of life and I couldn’t be more grateful
This sounds so angelic-like that it's very nostalgia..
Also very calming too.
Your voice is a gift to mankind.
Hi, Regina. I don’t know if you’ll see this. However, my mamma just past away and so did my birthday (22). She knew I loved you since I was a very little boy. You’re the reason I made it into music school. You’re the reason I perform. I’m so happy my mamma was able to see you inspire me to be the artist I am today. I’m Maxximo.X on Instagram and I post to your photos sometimes. Thank you for being a light in my life. Thank you for creating and sharing. I ask god to let my mom stay, but I know she is happier in heaven. Thank you for being here at the right moments. Regina, you’re amazing. Thank you for all that you are.
Love,
Maxximo
❤
That's beautiful.
💗💐
Beautiful story but let the story be about you and your amazing journey. It's cool to praise our heroes, but let's not forget about the journey we make to get to where we are.
Wishing you all the love and happiness and the best in life, my friend. Mamma is very proud of you. Take care 💝
Thank you. Your songs have been there in my darkest moments. This one hit me deep in the feels since I’ve felt lost for a few years now and kind of drifted off from my basic beliefs. Still fighting to get up everyday. Been thorough a lot of insomnia months and I almost gave up a lot as well. This line: “and I asked God, please call my name”, just made me cry, because I’ve prayed for so long for a silver lining. I love your songs and I’m really grateful for you, you always find the words to express those feelings that I cannot describe. Really, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
oh a new song to memorize💖💖 love u regina happy belated birthday!
This makes me cry. Regina Spektor's music was my entire high school experience, particularly Begin to Hope and Far, and just hearing her voice again takes me back over ten years to such a simpler time... A new album is the best news I've gotten in MONTHS, I can't wait!!!
I downloaded over 400 songs on Spotify in 2022. This is, without a doubt, the best song of the entire year. Absolute high-quality singing, songwriting, chords, lyrics. You're a genius, Regina.
Perfect song to end my day with.... 😊❤️❤️❤️
It’s very moving to see so many fellow people in the comment section who feel the same about finding comfort and healing in her music 🥹 It makes me happy to see everyone appreciating her return
Use this as "i cried" button
Regina, thank you for the new music
This world indeed makes me feel carsick.
Godspeed Regina, I can’t wait for the new album. 🤍
Wow! This was exactly what's been on my mind. You always have such a way of writing things beautifully. I especially have been thinking on this part of the song:
"Why doesn't it get better with time?"
I'm becoming all alone again
Stay, stay, stay
Let the ones who want it bad
Get all the things that make them better
Let the ones who don't care feel a thrill
And I just want to ride
But this whole world
It makes me carsick
Stop the meter, sir
You have a heart
Why don't you use it?"
It seems like caring in life backfires, and the people who don't care get the good things in life. Being good and choosing the right path comes at a cost. It feels lonely too. I wonder why people don't use their hearts more. Am I the one that's wrong? Am I the one that's different?
Anyways you sing it all so beautifully and sadly. Thank you. This is why I love your work. It is healing for my soul and heart. Thank you and take care Regina Spektor
My mom's a nurse and a lot of the times, it feels like I was born on a battlefield; nearly everyday, I watch her go as though I'm sending off a soldier. I love her so much, and she comes home with these 'battle stories' of how different patients or coworkers and families behaved and what she did. I wouldn't change a thing about the way I was raised. She brought that passion to me and I wouldn't give it up for anything, but we're very familiar with that wonder of "why don't people use their hearts more." Thanks Regina, and thank you, for caring
I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY REGINA AND FLORENCE MY TWO MUSICAL GODESSESS LAUCHING NEW STUFF ON THE SAME FREAKING WEEK, THANK YOU SO MUCH MY LOVE, I NEEDED THIS
This is so late BUT OH MY GOD I LOVE THEM BOTH TOO
This is so timely..my old friend reconected with me today and she was asking for advice about a riff with her long time BF..and she asked me this question? "If I let him go will I become an old maid? I am too old to start all over again." She's only 33 bdway and she feels unlucky in love. I am gona let her listen to this song. Thank you Regina!😙
Do it! All the best to her.
It's been sooooo long. This makes me sooooo happy. 😊❤️ Now excuse me while I go to download it from Spotify and listen to it on loop for the rest of the week.
Regina, you're my goddess. Let's grab a beer and please stay, stay, stay... so we can all listen to your divine music.
1. I could have sworn I had heard this or something similar before, yes formerly known as Stay. I was like is it me, or is this too nostalgic?
2. I will go long periods of time without listening to RegiSpek, and I thought I shall today, to my surprise there’s something new.
3. The last time we had a new album I was 18 and now I’m 23 time really flies.
4. You are timeless RegiSpek thank you for giving me musical joy since I was 10 years old.
I hope your new songs can get us out of this dark time, listen on repeat for some time now ❤

Thank you. This song helps.
I’ve been listening to the unreleased version of this for years thank you Regina for finally releasing this!!!! so beautiful
I lost my mom last year and I know in a few years, my younger bro will build his own family. At the end of ot all... I know that I'm going to be alone.
The sad thing is ... I'm starting to feel lonely now...
I want to shout to my departed parents, "Stay, stay, stay..."
i know the feeling. i lost my dad last year then my sister 2 months ago. my sister and i got to see regina in 2012 and have been big fans sense 07 and would always end up listening to regina. my sister would have loved this song and it makes me sad we cant enjoy the new album together when it comes out and of course now anytime i listen to regina i think about my sister. stay stay stayyyy
I almost think this is about, or rather, inspired by Regina's own recent grief. I'm sorry, I know it's...beyond hard to lose a parent, almost impossible -- I'm glad this songs found you.
she has such a beautiful voice, very sweet voice
i love her music
I knew this as Stay! So weird that it’s got a new title. And loveology finally studio recorded?????? I need this CD and vinyl preorder listing NOW
No way loveology I will cry
@@astridgamino5251 porcupineology
such a good lyricist.
Our greatest fear and greatest potential sorrow, even if we don't know it, is being forsaken by God. It's in Psalms 22:1, in Matthew 27:46, and in this masterpiece by Regina Spektor, a contemporary prophetess.
@Pablo Moreno Cordón Blessings to you.
your music is exactly what we all need in the world right now! i love the inspiration you continuously give me RS!!
Linda canção!
I adore Regina.
I've also journaled my entire adulthood. So this is great.
The world needs some of your music right now. Thank you much!
really down this past few weeks...... but when i saw my friend posted this, im okay now.
i feel better with your song.
thank you Regina Spektor. Imma fan since day 1.
Already a hugely underrated song 😟
Graciasss, me encanta tu música, desde Colombia y Venezuela ❤️❤️❤️
I had a visceral reaction to this. I just cried my eyes out. She’s a phenomenal songwriter.
Oh my God, at last !!!!!! "Remember Us To Life" was one of your best albums. Can't wait to hear the next one !!
I can already tell this new album will be her best..
Yayyyyy im so excited for ur new album !!!! Ur songs have accompanied me for most of my life so this is a pretty great deal to me ❣️
Stop the meter sir...another brilliant tune from one of my all-time faves.
Regina spektor's songs always had this realistic feel to it, i love this song
Realistic is an interesting way to describe it; I like it but wanna know what you mean in this case
@@samwallaceart288 to me, regina spektor's songs seem to have alot of lyrics that tie to real life experiences, more specifically the forlorn and sad parts about life. For this song i it feels like it tells about the struggles of life and how it does not get better over time.
al fin volvió a subir algo la mejor 💗
One of the first hundred to hear a Masterpiece.
I forgot I even subscribed to her and it's been a long time since I've heard her music
YES REGINA WE LOVE YOU!!
ugh that incredible voice is aging so well
IM GOING 2 CRY THANKS REGI QUEEN
Seeing you in sandy and I can’t wait 🧡 you’ve been in my life since I was 16, I am now 32. Thank you for being there for so many milestones and transitions in my life.
Just watched the season 2 finale of Sex Education... I enjoyed the Chip Taylor cover of "On the Radio" (actually I cried) but I wanted to hear the original (and I cried) and then I saw there's a new Regina Spektor song and I loved it (and I cried!!)
This is perfect after a break-up.
A new Regina song makes life on earth a little better... brighter... love Regina
Fugk. Just got heartbroken and Regina uploaded this ! Not coincidence. Just a cosmic joke.
Thank you for your wonderful music that always fills my heart 💖
Regina's my oldest muse💕My 1st fave singer who's songs never got old, kept their allure for yrs🥰 Helped me thru a rlly difficult time when I was younger & stuck in hospital for months. Put a keyboard in my room & learned at least 15 of ur songs during tht time over those 2 yrs in n out & it helped me discover my passion for piano & singing (: Tysm Regina💗 Had a rlly positive, inspiring impact on me😊 am so glad for this notification!
I love this song so much. Yes, sometimes is makes me feel lonely; but it's also oddly comforting and happy for me at times.
This is gonna be my song of the year for sure... there's literally nothing more special than this song for me right now.
