1.	Alice 07:32	lyrics	buy track
A world of crimson and gold Strong divide, the weak and the poor And there, high in the keep Kings and Queens, quick to ignore Herald cry, banner fly Raise the gate, raven’s eye Can you see the pretty girl? Hide away the pretty girl. Fill the halls, suitor calls Shout aloud, claim appalls Take your pick of pretty girls Run away you pretty girl. She waits alone in her room Heart be bound; slave to her dowry Below, harken a call “Do not fear, come to your window...” “Who’s there? Who’s calling my name?” “Please be gone, someone will hear you." And there, down on the ground A peasant boy, kindly and true. “Come with me, you’ll be free” “You’re alone, I can see“ “Run with me you pretty girl” “More than just a pretty girl” “Climb the wall, leave it all” “I’ll be here if you fall” “Here they say you’re just a girl “ “We can find another world.” The day broke down to night Hiding soft, down in the forest The trees showed them the way Do not fear, follow the lights Be safe, whispered the stars Far away, no-one will harm. And there, home in the keep Suitor cries 'Where is my pretty girl?!' At last, after the dawn Came the two, down to the riverside And there, shrouded in green Riabhach, welcoming smile. 'You have come far from home' 'Still you wish further on' 'I can take you anywhere' 'You can breathe a freer air' 'Yes it’s true, I did run' 'Didn’t want to belong' 'More than just a pretty girl' 'Let me in your other world' 'Are you sure, do you know' 'What it means here to go?' 'Once you see the other world' 'It will be your only world' 'Take me there, let me live' 'I have so much to give' 'I can see you understand' 'Take me to this wonderland'
