When You’re Alone

Times were tough and love was not enough, So, you said, "sorry, Johnny, I'm gone, gone, gone," you said my act was funny, but we both knew what was missing, honey, so, you lit out on your own, now that pretty form that you've got, baby, will make sure you get along, but you're gonna find out some day, honey When you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you ain't nothing but alone Now I was young and pretty on the mean streets of the city, and I fought to make 'em my home, with just the shirt on my back, I left and swore I'd never look back, and, man, I was gone, gone, gone, but there's things that'll knock you down you don't even see coming and send you crawling like a baby back home you're gonna find out that day, sugar When you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you ain't nothing but alone I knew some day your runnin' would be through and you'd think back on me and you, and your love would be strong, you'd forget all about the bad and think only of all the laughs that we had, and you'd want to come home Now, it ain't hard feelings or nothing, sugar, that ain't what's got me singing this song, it's just nobody knows, honey, where love goes, but when it goes, it's gone And when you're alone, you're alone, When you're alone, you're alone, When you're alone, you're alone, When you're alone, you ain't nothing but alone, When you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you're alone, when you're alone, you ain't nothing but alone
