TOM WAITS ALICE LYRICS

It's dreamy weather we're on
Along an icy pond
You wave your crooked wand
With a frozen moon
And the tears on my face
A murder of silhouette crows I saw
And the skates on the pond
They spell Alice

I'll disappear in your name
But you must wait for me
Somewhere across the sea
There's a wreck of a ship
Your hair is like meadow grass
On the tide
And the raindrops on my window
And the ice in my drink
Baby, all that I can think of
Is Alice

Arithmetic, Arithmetock
How does the ocean rock the boat
I turn the hands back on the clock
The only strings that hold me here
How did the razor find my throat
Are tangled up around the pier
[ Alice lyrics from http://www.lyricsyoulove.com/ ]

And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the bliss
And I will think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
To go skating on your name
Set me adrift and I'm lost over there
And I must be insane
And by tracing it twice
I fell through the ice
Of Alice
And so a secret kiss
When I'm dead in my grave

Brings madness with the bliss
And I will think of this
Set me adrift and I'm lost over there
And I must be insane
And by tracing it twice
To go skating on your name
I fell through the ice
Of Alice

There's only Alice
