Rules were clear, I accepted to play her game
No romance, the first to fall in love here would fail
She explained it to me after a desperate kiss
I stole (gave) her September the sixth as my birthday gift
I fell soon after I cannot lie, I couldn’t resist those clear blue eyes
She won her freedom, which had never been at risk to lose
But lost my love which I always waste like a lonely fool
Another day, the same tale
A pair of burgers and a movie, it all looked well
Alice in Wonderland worked like a magic spell
Before I left I stood there and told her
I loved her more than a bacon cheese burger
The white rabbit, and the dodo, and the caterpillar
They all laughed at my babbling statement full of fears
Her words of smoke which had been like my moon and stars
Were now like jabs while driving home in my car
