Alice

Another Alice intervention
I give her all of my attention
She's the life of the party
She came home with somebody last night

I can hear her crying through the walls now
She's not afraid to let it all out
She's a little bit manic
But I know all about it's fine

She's knitting pretty outfits on the sofa
Worried bout the fact she's getting older
Talk until she crashes on my shoulder
May 3rd Waterman Avenue

Oh Alice
In the morning we'll be laughing about it
Drinking coffee round the block watching traffic
Oh Alice
We're growing up

Oh Alice
Another story for the books bout the baddest
And I'm not usually the one who's nostalgic
But oh Alice
We're growing up

Another guy that got my hopes up
Thought I was dying in our bathtub
But she force fed me dinner made me look in the mirror and smile

She says my name like it's an anthem
She wipes my tears and understands them
Makes me feel like the winner
Even though I'm a loser in his eyes

Crying out my feelings on the sofa
Worried that the best I had is over
Talk until I crash up on her shoulder
June 10th Waterman Avenue

Oh Alice
In the morning we'll be laughing about it
Drinking coffee round the block watching traffic
Oh Alice
We're growing up

Oh Alice
Another story for the books bout the baddest
And I'm not usually the one who's nostalgic
But oh Alice
We're growing up
