Well Alice came along when I needed something strong And there's two ways that can go for a man like me She saw me reaching and reached me just in time To save me from my insanity And I could see it in those Alice eyes I'd be sure and steady just like a child Every morning when I wake up Knowing that my light still shines I can see it in those Alice eyes A woman has a way of knowing what to say And smoothing out the edges over time Well I tried to do my part, I walked beside her in the dark And tried to let her know that she was mine And I could see it in those Alice eyes I'd be sure and steady just like a child Every morning when I wake up Knowing that my light still shines I can see it in those Alice eyes Well I don't make it easy sometimes But I don't have to wonder who'll be there by my side Now she's gone I don't know how I'll carry on She's the one I'd reach for every time She was always there through the years she always cared Now I'm drifting, I'm alone and blind And I could see it in those Alice eyes I'd be sure and steady just like a child Every morning when I wake up Knowing that my light still shines I can see it in those Alice eyes
