Jewel - Goodbye Alice In Wonderland Lyrics

[Verse 1:]

It's four in the afternoon

I'm on a flight leaving L.A.

Trying to think about my life

My youth scattered along the highway

Hotel rooms and headlights

I've made a living with a song

Guitar as my companion

Wanting desperately to belong

Fame is filled with spoiled children

We grow fat on fantasy

I guess that's why I'm leaving

I crave reality

[Chorus 1:]

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland

Goodbye yellow brick road

There is a difference between dreaming and pretending

I did not find paradise

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting

What's been missing in my life

[Verse 2:]

I'm embarassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliche

I hit the bottom when I reached the top

But I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart

I thought you had to love me

But you did not

Yes a heart can hallucinate

If it's completely starved for love

It can even turn monsters into

Angels from above

You forged my love just like a weapon

And you turned it against me like a knife

You broke my last heartstring

You opened up my eyes

[Chorus 2:]

So goodbye Alice in Wonderland

Goodbye yellow brick road

There is a difference between dreaming and pretending

That was not love in your eyes

It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching

What was missing in my life

[Bridge:]

Growing up is not an absence of dreaming

It's being able to understand the difference between the ones you can hold

And the ones that you've been sold

And Dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life

But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie

Forgetting what you are

Seeing for what you've been told

[Verse 3:]

Ohh truth is stranger than fiction

This is my chance to get it right

And life is much better without all of those pretty lies

[Chorus 3:]

Ohh So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland

And you can keep your yellow brick road

There is a difference between dreaming and pretending

These are not tears in my eyes

They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding

They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding

I found what's missing in my life
