Oh, Alison

We all need
Need to talk about Eve
Seasoned to please
She wears her red lipstick with ease

Girls like her miss the thing
That could bring me to sing
For the one all alone
And unseen, dreaming quietly

The light of the moon
Eclipsed by the dark gaze of June
She inspires the tune
When we fall to our knees and delightfully swoon

But I'm sure it's not her
Who my heart would prefer
It's the girl unaccompanied
Lonely in irony

Oh, oh, Alison
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison
Won't you save your tears for me

Think of Celeste
(Celeste)
Dressed up in her fine Sunday best
(Fine Sunday best)
The folks are impressed
(Impressed)
By the thought that she's even the consummate guest
(Consummate guest)

And then there's Claire
Black strewn through the light of her hair
(Light of her hair)
She hasn't a care
She's a rebel complete with a callous conceit

But I'm sure it's not her
Who my heart would prefer
It's the girl unaccompanied
Lonely in irony

Oh, oh, Alison
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison
Won't you save your tears for me
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
Won't you save your tears for me

All those girls miss the thing
That could bring me to sing
For the one all alone
And unseen, dreaming quietly
I couldn't ignore
That I'm looking for more
Get the girl unaccompanied
Lonely in irony

Oh, oh, Alison
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison
Won't you save your tears for me
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
Won't you save your tears for me
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
Won't you save your tears for

Me - Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
Won't you save your tears for me
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison (Oh, Alison)
Won't you save your tears for me
Oh, Alison
I can hear your silent plea
Oh, Alison
Won't
