Alison (Demo) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, it's so funny now me seeing you after so long
But the way you look, I understand that you were not impressed
Well, I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress
I'm not gonna get too sentimental
Like those other fickle valentines
'Cause I don't know if you were loving somebody
I only know it isn't mine
[Chorus]
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, oh-oh, Alison, my aim is true
[Verse 2]
Well, I see you've got a husband now
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand
But he took all he could take
Sometimes, I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say
I think somebody better put out the big light
'Cause I can't stand to see you this way
[Chorus]
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, oh-oh, Alison, my aim is true
Oh, it's so funny now me seeing you after so long
But the way you look, I understand that you were not impressed
Well, I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress
I'm not gonna get too sentimental
Like those other fickle valentines
'Cause I don't know if you were loving somebody
I only know it isn't mine
[Chorus]
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, oh-oh, Alison, my aim is true
[Verse 2]
Well, I see you've got a husband now
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand
But he took all he could take
Sometimes, I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things that you say
I think somebody better put out the big light
'Cause I can't stand to see you this way
[Chorus]
Alison, I know this world is killing you
Oh, oh-oh, Alison, my aim is true
[Outro]
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
