"Alice" lyrics - JOE HENRY

There's a train already come
There's a train already come
Her hands are birds, her heart a drum-
Lo these many years

There's a horse upon a yard
There's a horse upon a yard
The blooms are sweet, the stems are hard-
Lo these many years

There's a kiss nobody saw
By the bridge, upon a wall
There's a house caught on with fire
And news of him sent on a wire.

There's a train now gone from view
There's a train now gone from view
Her heart is still, her eyes are too-
Lo these many years
