ALISON
Elvis Costello

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 somebody 
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 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)
