It was getting to the end of the night
And the sky was turning blue
You were waiting at the end of line
Fur coat and leather shoes
We got talking over cigarettes
And we shared our love for Sly
Laughing over no regrets
To all the lovers that have passed us by
Tell me all your favourite shows
The places that you want to go
I've got to know, I've got to know
You've read the books my father read
I even like some of your friends
But does it show, that I'm needing you
So
Alice
Why don't we takes chances
Get into all our talents
And Skate along this mattress
It's madness
Now Alice
Point me to an atlas
Amsterdam or Paris
We can find our balance
Oh Alice
I missed something all my life
I never knew it had a name
I never thought I'd catch your smile
Like a picture you could never frame
You say you've got your mothers eyes
There's something I wouldn't have any other way, don't you ever change
Tell me all your favourite shows
The places that you want to go
I've got to know, I've got to know
You've read the books my father read
I even like some of your friends
But does it show, that I'm needing you
So
Alice
Why don't we takes chances
Get into all our talents
And Skate along this mattress
It's madness
Now Alice
Point me to an atlas
Amsterdam or Paris
We can find our balance
Oh Alice
