Laura Veirs - That Alice lyrics

Born in Detroit, then she studied in France She played the harp, she played jazz With John Coltrane, she became his wife Made a lot of music before he died That Alice, made a palace For us to hear That Alice, made a palace For our ears She moved to California, became a swamini Living in a place near Malibu Beach I never had the chance, to see her play I listen to the records and I feel the waves That Alice, made a palace For us to hear That Alice, made a palace For our ears Made a million journeys in your mind I can feel it in the way that you keep time I wonder if she's watching, up above the clouds What happened to her spirit, is it still in the ground I can hear her, in that spinning black Living in a jukebox, so coming back That Alice, made a palace For us to hear That Alice, made a palace For our ears That Alice (4x)
