Lyrics She's My Alcatraz - The Mr. T Experience

She's My Alcatraz

Now you see it, now you don’t
Things make sense, and then they won’t
I can barely see across the bay
She’s so distant and obscure
I can’t escape from her
Until I’m far enough away
And Alcatraz comes in and out of sight
And Alcatraz is flashing in the night
And I think of the one, a distant blur
A piece of me still lodged in her
Held prisoner — she’s my Alcatraz
Things I think I almost know
Discontinued long ago
Once occurred inside her walls
And I can’t helping thinking of
Harsh rituals of love
That no one quite recalls
But Alcatraz doesn’t really care
And Alcatraz almost isn’t there
But I think of the one, so dear to me
Whose face I still can almost see
Distantly — she’s my Alcatraz
So un-together
Under the weather
I can’t make it out
And Alcatraz is a distant blur
So Alcatraz looks a lot like her
And I almost see her taking shape
And part of me still can’t escape
Nobody has — she’s my Alcatraz
