Robin Evans - Alice Lyrics

Dogs are fighting in the alley
Echoes through the night
Takes me back to thinking
Of that summer in late July
When you and I were more than friends
I drove you there but not back again
They looked upon what I'd become
They said I'd never see the sun
Oh Alice, what have I become
We took your boat out on the lake
I felt your whiskey kissing true
Swimming in the water honey
I felt the world was me and you
And I shot you twice and pushed you in
You couldn't even try to swim
When I watched you sink into the deep
With those promises you didn't keep
Oh Alice, you know you promised me
I was stood there in his yard
Far too drunk to cry
That's where they cuffed me
And they found him dead inside
And I shot you twice and pushed you in
You couldn't even try to swim
When I watched you sink into the deep
With those promises you didn't keep
Oh Alice, you know you promised me
Now I call the city home
Freedom's taste is new to me
And that day out on the lake
Is hazy like a dream
And I shot you twice and pushed you in
You couldn't even try to swim
When I watched you sink into the deep
With those promises you didn't keep
Oh Alice, you know you promised me
Oh Alice, you know you promised me
Oh Alice, you know you promised me
Oh Alice
