Alice

Put your hair back in that, magic black elastic
I'm powerless to ponytails who, who used to do gymnastics
And I, I know you know you wanna dance
I watch you smile and try to mask it
You stir your whiskey with the plastic

You're picture perfect in this light beer
Never-mind the twenty hour flight here

Alice
Alice
All my best come ons
But come on
You are too far away

Everything is better through a, a camera in Canberra
Skype is now my lifeline and, my email is mana
And if, airfare weren't so unfair
I would be in Sydney instantly and we'd be Bondi bound

You have monopolized cute
But talk about a trivial pursuit

Alice
Alice
All my best come ons
But come on
You are too far away

Too far
Too far away to keep
'Cause every time I wake up, you're about to go to sleep
And you say "good day, this is Alice, leave a message at the beep"
Only missing you is pointless when you're always out of reach
Besides there's nothing left to say to you now, I just have to hold you
And we are just as natural a disaster as I told you
So evacuate my heart
'Cause inside it's total chaos
And I lose myself when people say your name
And I stay lost
Stay lost, for a good three days
A really good three days

Maybe one day you'll find a way
Find a way, find a way, find a way
Maybe one, maybe, maybe one day we'll find-
The day for me is night for you
The day for me is night for you
But I'll still say goodnight to you
