Norman Allan Crew - It Can Only Be The First Time Once lyrics

rate me

ERSE:

He puts Clapton on the stereo,

It's vinyl not CD or POD,

He sings tonight she looks wonderful,

Back then when Eric was God.

He steps onto the verandah,

He opens just one can of beer,

There's a hole in his heart your could drive through,

In his eye there's a hint of a tear.

CHORUS:

It only hurts when he thinks of her,

So it hurts all of the time,

He's tried drinking and drugs,

And some other loves,

But nothings working this time.

VERSE:

The cicadas sing the chorus,

The bush smells so fresh and alive,

But he sees her face in the light of the moon,

And he wonders how he will survive,

CHORUS:

It only hurts when he thinks of her,

So it hurts all of the time,

He's tried drinking and drugs,

And some other loves,

But nothings working this time.

INSTRUMENTAL:

VERSE:

He puts Eric back in his cover,

He throws the tinny into the bin,

He closes the door and the shutters,

And he wishes that she'd never been.

CHORUS:

It only hurts when he thinks of her,

So it hurts all of the time,

He's tried drinking and drugs,

And some other loves,

But nothings working this time.

(REPEAT AND FADE)
