Song information

Title: Alison
Artist: Elvis Costello
Album: My Aim Is True

Oh, it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl


And with the way you look, I understand that you were not impressed


But I heard you let that little friend of mine


Take off your party dress


I'm not gonna get too sentimental


Like those other sticky valentines


'Cause I don't know if you are loving some body


I only know it isn't mine





Alison, I know this world is killing you


Oh, Alison, my aim is true





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


I bet he took all that 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





Alison, I know this world is killing you


Oh, Alison, my aim is true


My aim is true


My aim is true


(REPEAT AND FADE)
