-"'''A Glorious Moment'''" is the twenty-sixth and final track from ''[[Alone III: The Pinkerton Years 1994-1997]]''.
+"'''When You're Alone'''" is the sixth track from ''[[Alone III: The Pinkerton Years 1994-1997]]''.
 ==Overview==
-"A Glorious Moment" is a spoken word recording from [[April 15]], [[1995]], the day after [[Rivers Cuomo|Rivers]]' leg surgery which is heavily detailed in ''[[The Pinkerton Diaries]]'' and helped influence some of the content from ''[[Pinkerton]]''. A track listed as "1995-04-15 RC After Operation" in [[The 4 and 5 star demos of Rivers Cuomo]] likely refers to this recording.
+"When You're Alone" is an a capella composition, described in the recording history as a "barbershop original." It was recorded in November or December of [[1993]], and the [[Catalog of Riffs]] lists it as being written [[November 30]], [[1993]].
+Despite being released on ''Alone III'', the lyrics are not listed in ''[[The Pinkerton Diaries]]''.
 == Personnel ==
 * [[Rivers Cuomo]] – vocals

+==Lyrics==
-"It's 5:30 on... the 15th... the day after my operation. Um... I'm, eating saltines, drinking juice. I actually peed... for the first time... on my own. It was... a glorious moment. It was truly glorious. Now I'm going to try to... set up some music to listen to. Goodbye."
+<lyrics>
+(interpretation)
+What good is the sun that shines?
+What good is the morning dew?
+No matter how sweet
+Or lovely the morn
+It's no fun at all
+When you're alone
+Who cares that the sun has gone?
+And rain falls around we too?
+No matter how cold
+Or dreary the night
+I can't help but smile
+When you're with me
+</lyrics>
