       A
When I rushed to the window, and I looked outside

I could hardly believe my eyes.

                                   A           E
And the big limosine pulled up, in alices drive.

We walked together, two kids in the park

                                          E       A    E
We inscribed our initials deep in the bark me and alice

        A
As she walks to the door with her head held high

D                                 E
just for a moment I caught her eye

                                A         E
As the limosine pulls out, of alices drive

      A
