Alice
It's dreamy weather we're onYou waved your crooked wandAlong an icy pond with a frozen moonA murder of silhouette crows I sawAnd the tears on my faceAnd the skates on the pondThey spell Alice
I disappear in your nameBut you must wait for meSomewhere across the seaThere's a wreck of a shipYour hair is like meadow grass on the tideAnd the raindrops on my windowAnd the ice in my drinkBaby all I can think of is Alice
Arithmetic arithmetockTurn the hands back on the clockHow does the ocean rock the boat?How did the razor find my throat?The only strings that hold me hereAre tangled up around the pier
And so a secret kissBrings madness with the blissAnd I will think of thisWhen I'm dead in my graveSet me adrift and I'm lost over thereAnd I must be insaneTo go skating on your nameAnd by tracing it twiceI fell through the iceOf Alice
And so a secret kissBrings madness with the blissAnd I will think of thisWhen I'm dead in my graveSet me adrift and I'm lost over thereAnd I must be insaneTo go skating on your nameAnd by tracing it twiceI fell through the iceOf AliceThere's only Alice
