an alice in wonderland's maze for two

my white rabbit chase around the maze
down the tunnel, we see no light
an underground merry-go-round
in and out the maze we go, lost the hare and lost some hope
tears run dry, oh dear alice we have to go
goodbye tomorrow, we'll swim gaily in our own messes and puddles
with hatters and soldiers, painted roses and magic potions
all in our worn out shoes and dirty coat dresses

goodbye today, we'll wake up in wonderland
we'll see forever and ever in our hands
dirt-smudged a little imperfect
it's okay we say we'll go this way
hansel and gretel and these little bread crumbs

we're up to mischief, says she

i remember you
the one that smiled a million times for me
the one that laughed a throaty chorus of stars
eyes like bambi, a toast we screamed forever and ever
i like you the song that sang a pitch too high
they screamed over and over again for us to be together
we held on we ran, the bus dash from the gates
the great leap over the puddle, a peppermint chocolate stick
i want you, i forgot we cannot speak
of us, and we, perhaps oh maybe frosting on our lips
i forgot you the one with shiny black hair and hands for him
