Alice Is A Long Time Gone Lyrics - Singles - Incredible String Band

White rabbit smile, white rabbit smile 

cry not so loud my lover frowns 

I'm a grown up lady from London town 

Yet ever more he sang his sad song- 

sweet Alice is a long time gone 

Oh Alice is gone, gone 

Alice is gone, gone 

sweet Alice is a long time gone 

she was pretty, oh yes 

with her flaxen hair, her eyes so fair 

her sweet voice and her snow white dress 

Oh Alice is gone, gone 

Alice is gone, gone 

sweet Alice is a long time gone 

It's seven long years 

since last I seen your face 

no-one in Wonderland 

could take your place 

but when I see you again 

that sets me back apace 

sweet Alice is a long time gone 

I would exchange my coat of fur 

if time would turn or waters burn 

I'd wish you back the way you were 

Oh Alice is gone, gone 

Alice is gone, gone 

sweet Alice is a long time gone.
