Susan Ashton - Alice in Wonderland Lyrics

When Alice has an answer it's a common rationality
She measures her phrases, tipping the scales of reality
But does she know that it's cold to sing songs to a troubled heart
Tho' her aim is sincere she's missing the mark

[CHORUS:]
She paints her world in yellow and green, covering over the greys
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her wonderland

I said - Alice look around you, people are falling to pieces
Yea, even the faithful, the ones who still believe in Jesus
But that doesn't mean they've fallen from grace
But in her landscape, their heartache is so out of place
(Chorus)
So can we talk of shoes and of ships?
Can we talk of cabbages and kings?
And of learning to live with the mystery of things
(Chorus)
So Alice stays lost in her Wonderland
