about
Thanks again to Sara Shoys for her lovely, haunting vocals.
lyrics
dreams of ships and voyages
all turned to sand
dreams of soldiers and ladies fair
crumbled into dust
there's no time for dreaming
under harsh fluorescent light
there's no chance of leaving
but she knows something isn't right
alice still remembers what it's like
to lose herself in something
beautiful
and powerful
and truer than the world
dreams of bright adventure
abandoned to decay
there's no place for magic
under the crushing weight of security
alice still remembers how it was
when she believed that she was
beautiful
and powerful
and loved by all the world
but in the quiet hours
between the days so full of fear
trumpets call across the gulf of years
(please come away)
alice still remembers what it's like
to lose herself in something
beautiful
and powerful
and truer than the world
alice still remembers how it was
when she believed that she was
beautiful
and powerful
a princess in a world so far away
