Alice's Song

If I could live in Alice's world

I wonder if I'd learn

What makes her strong

What makes her safe

What makes her suddenly afraid

I'd understand this little girl

But I'll never live in Alice's world

If I could see through Alice's eyes

I wonder what I'd see

Is her sky blue, is her grass green

Does she see things I've never seen

What's in her mind she keeps inside

I'll never see through Alice's eyes

If could love through Alice's heart

I wonder who I'd trust

So silently she smiles at me

But answers she will not reveal

She never tells why it's so hard

To win a place in Alice's heart
