Once When Alone Lyrics by Chris Knox

Croaker

1991

[Verse 1]
Having a laugh about it, laugh till I cry
Seems so unfair to doubt it, tears in my eye
[Chorus]
Came to me once when alone
Came to me when I was on my own
[Verse 2]
Filled to the brim with wonder, what should I do?
Rain poured on down and thunder, shattered the blue
[Chorus]
Came to me once when alone
Came to me when I was on my own
[Bridge]
It left me laid out, it left me drained
What am I, what am I feeling?
Where in the world can I go?
What in the world can I know?
[Verse 3]
Now we just laugh about it, laugh till I cry
Seems we must live without it, tears in my eye
[Chorus]
Came to me once when alone
Came to me when I was on my own
[Bridge]
It left me laid out, it left me drained
What am I, what am I feeling?
Where in the world can I go?
What in the world can I know?
[Refrain]
Having a laugh about it, laugh till I cry
