Alison Lyrics & Chords By Elvis Costello

Oh, it's so funny to be seein' you after so long, girl
And with the way you look I understand that you are 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 lovin' somebody
I only know it isn't mine

Alison
I know this world is killin' you
Oh, Alison
My aim is true

Well, I see you've got a husband now
Did you leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand
I bet it took all he could take

Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talkin'
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
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
