Lyrics Alice - Ryan Adams

Alice

Alice held her hands up to her mother's face drenched in sweat and blood
And some relied she clenched her fists once more and straightened her back
And her face went wide and her money passed for good eventually
And the birds outside the parlor window had evaded the storm
It passed and all that was left was the damper and the empty light of the
afternoon

Alice was finally alone
Alice was finally alone

Hotel lights make the walls on the streets feel like they're burning holes in
the avenue
As the wind carries her feet she goes straight into bed
Straight into bed again where she feels safe

Alice was finally alone
Alice was finally alone
Alice was finally alone
She's finally alone
