All at Once Lyrics by Whitney Houston

Whitney: The Greatest Hits

1985

[Verse 1]
All at once
I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that
You're not coming back
And it finally hit me all at once
All at once
I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell
My eyes began to swell
And all my dreams were shattered all at once
[Pre-Chorus]
Ever since I met you
You're the only love I've known
And I can't forget you
Though I must face it all alone
[Chorus]
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And that's all that matters now
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it hurts me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once
[Verse 2]
All at once
I looked around and found that you were with another love
In someone else's arms
And all my dreams were shattered, all at once
All at once
The smile that used to greet me brightened someone else's day
She took your smile away
And left me with just memories, all at once
[Pre-Chorus]
Ever since I met you
You're the only love I've known
And I can't forget you
Though I must face it all alone
[Chorus]
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And that's all that matters now
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it hurts me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And it hurts me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once
And that's all that matters now
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And it hurts me more than you know
All at once
