Where is Alice(lullabye style joint)


Alice Alice
where are you
baby you don't seem quite there
now there's some who say
that ya gone away
from all the pain
you bear
dimmed are eyes
that once were bright
they'd light my darkest skies
sugah come fly with me
we can both be free
and it's easy if you try

you seemed to light up my world, oh
you seemed to love the whole world, no?
you seen me at the end of my rope, yeah ya' have
you seen me at the edge of my hope, now tell me

Alice Alice
where is Alice
where is Alice now
has she gone inside
has she gone on the inside
has she gone in to stay for
a little while

so...
are ya gonna just lay there and...
sleep on?
Comatose oh baby...
come back when you want
we're not all bad people
no

Only time can
prove to you
the real you inside
so don't you be
in a state of
undoing
and it's
Oh
kay
to cry

you seemed to light up my world, oh
you seemed to love the whole world, no?
you seen me at the end of my rope, yeah ya' have
you seen me at the edge of my hope, now tell me

Alice Alice
where is Alice
where is Alice now
has she gone inside
has she gone on the inside
has she gone in to stay for
a little while
just a
little while
I hope a
little while
a little while







Judyrise


I do
I be takin' you
but then I lose a clue
to all that you been sayin'
Judyrise
knock 'em down to size
show 'em what you're capable
what you're capable of doin'
Hey
Jude
I can relate to you
no I don't just relate to you
I relate to everything that you do

Judyrise
baby we could touch the sky
but if we fly too high
than what?
Judyfly
but don't you fly too high
and if we die tonight
you've been loved

Hey
Jude
I believe in you
I believe in everything
you say you feel that you do
Ju-
dy
though I try to you see
can you be the rock for you
that you been for me

and remember baby
no matter how it goes ya'
gotta have strength to hold ya'
gotta be strong in order
to survive
I know you feel the pain of
goin' against the grain of
fallin' apart
how long do ya plan to stay alive
I know it's crazy and I'm
sorry for askin' but my
intuition is scarin' me
gurl I hope you know that
I really hope you know that
you don't have to die in
order to be free

Judyrise
we can touch the sky
but if we fly too high
than what?
Judyfly
but don't you fly too high
and if we die tonight
gurl you been loved





Joni

Can't help but
wonder what Joni's thinkin'
lookin' out her window
everyday as I pass by
she got alot of worries in her head
IyIyI no-
tice
this
and every time she cries

and her tears just
drop down from her head
down her window pane
and on my brain
and I can't get her off my mind
her tears just
drop down from her window pane
on my brain
to cause me pain
and sometimes I cry

It breaks my heart when she cries
to see tears fallin' from those hazel eyes
and it's been my fear for so long
to look up at that window and she'd be gone
now Joni's got to be the loneliest gurl in the world
I can tell she's human from the tears she cries
I never thought in a million years
that I could find someone as lonely as I

I guess her tears just

drop down from her head
down her window pane
and on my brain
I can't get her off my mind
and I can't get her off my mind
her tears just
drop down from her window pane
on my brain
to cause me pain
and sometimes I cry
