Alice Lyrics
Well I heard she flew down to the Mountain City
He said, "That's not what I heard...I hear she went higher."
She depended on her friends to tell her when to stop it
To make a statement...this is me talking to you
Like Alice through the Looking Glass...
She used to know who she was
Call out my name...call out my name
But I get no answer...she prays...
"Better run for your life!" cried the Mad Hatter
"Alright," said Alice..."I'm going back...
To the other side of the mirror...I'm going back..."
Oh no, you cannot tell a gypsy...ooh, that she's no longer a member
Become a deadly weapon now...along with everything else
Oh call my name...
Like Alice through the Looking Glass...
She used to know who she was
Call out my name (like Alice through the Looking Glass)
but I get no answer (she used to know who she was)
And she prays for the world that she comes from
Each had their own charm...
Buried beneath a solid piece of armour...or a steel plated vest
Some carry a stiletto in their garter along with everything else --
that they carry...Oh, call my name...
Like Alice through the Looking Glass
She used to know who she was
Call out my name (like Alice through the Looking Glass)
But I get no answer (she used to know who she was)
And she prays for the world that she comes from
Alice!...call my name...
"Ooh run for your life..." said the Mad Hatter
"Alright," said Alice..."I'm going back to the other side of the mirror"
This is me talking to you...well this is me talking to ya
Alice...Alice...
He said, "That's not what I heard...I hear she went higher."
She depended on her friends to tell her when to stop it
To make a statement...this is me talking to you
She used to know who she was
Call out my name...call out my name
But I get no answer...she prays...
"Alright," said Alice..."I'm going back...
To the other side of the mirror...I'm going back..."
Oh no, you cannot tell a gypsy...ooh, that she's no longer a member
Become a deadly weapon now...along with everything else
Oh call my name...
She used to know who she was
Call out my name (like Alice through the Looking Glass)
but I get no answer (she used to know who she was)
And she prays for the world that she comes from
Buried beneath a solid piece of armour...or a steel plated vest
Some carry a stiletto in their garter along with everything else --
that they carry...Oh, call my name...
She used to know who she was
Call out my name (like Alice through the Looking Glass)
But I get no answer (she used to know who she was)
And she prays for the world that she comes from
Alice!...call my name...
"Alright," said Alice..."I'm going back to the other side of the mirror"
This is me talking to you...well this is me talking to ya
Alice...Alice...

I can't belive no has commented on this song. Stevie Nicks is just so talented and this song is so pretty. Like all of stevie's songs are so meaningful and have so many stories in them. Anyways this is one of my favorite songs by Stevie Nicks.
it is true , when you have no friends, you dont know how or why to stop.. The world hurts .and if every where you turn ,even backwards is strangers ..you loved as a trusted child.. you have no god to pray too.
Stevie has never said (at least I have never heard her saying or haven't read nothing concrete) what this song is exactly about. But if you read her comments you can understand that the story of Alice is a referance to her dubble life. I mean life between Fleetwood Mac and her solo carieer and life between carieer and her personal life. Well, here's what she said: “Much of Alice in Stevie Nicks’ Alice is Stevie writing about Alice in parallel back to Stevie, so I’m really writing about Alice’s adventures as in comparison to my adventures,” she once explained. “For Alice to run back and forth between the looking glass is kind of what I perceive my whole life to be, running back and forth between two places — which is obviously my career with Fleetwood Mac and my career by myself. And then of course, there’s the other part of my life, which is my own life, which there isn’t very much of. But I always seem to be running to one place or the other.” https://www.rhino.com/article/deep-dive-stevie-nicks-the-other-side-of-the-mirror-0
