White rabbit smile, white rabbit smile
|
cry not so loud my lover frowns
|
I'm a grown up lady from London town
|
Yet ever more he sang his sad song-
|
sweet Alice is a long time gone
|
|
Oh Alice is gone, gone
|
Alice is gone, gone
|
sweet Alice is a long time gone
|
|
she was pretty, oh yes
|
with her flaxen hair, her eyes so fair
|
her sweet voice and her snow white dress
|
|
Oh Alice is gone, gone
|
Alice is gone, gone
|
sweet Alice is a long time gone
|
|
It's seven long years
|
since last I seen your face
|
no-one in Wonderland
|
could take your place
|
but when I see you again
|
that sets me back apace
|
sweet Alice is a long time gone
|
|
I would exchange my coat of fur
|
if time would turn or waters burn
|
I'd wish you back the way you were
|
|
Oh Alice is gone, gone
|
Alice is gone, gone
|
sweet Alice is a long time gone.
