Alice Songtext
von Joe Henry

There′s a train already come
There's a train already come
Her hands are birds, her heart a drum
Lo, these many years


There′s a horse upon a yard
There's a horse upon a yard
The blooms are sweet, the stems are hard
Lo, these many years

There's a kiss nobody saw
By the bridge upon a wall
There′s a house caught on with fire
And news of him sent on a wire

There′s a train now gone from view
There's a train gone from view
Her heart is still, her eyes are too
Lo, these many years
