She went out when he came in,
they lived inside a weather-house.
They found the decor very strange.
Their hearts were in a dreadful spin.
She was quiet as a mouse
but Hatter wasn’t quite deranged,
not at the moment seasons change.
Sometimes time will stand quite still
and when that hopeful moment came
they built a new house on a hill,
they found a place they both could fit.
If Alice shrinks or grows quite tall
Hatter fails to notice it.
It has no consequence at all.
And when his moods are quite bizarre
he never walks off very far.
Which only shows,
you never know
which way next a story goes.
weather house
In the Weather House
there was a time they were together
dancers on a music box
all was peace and harmony
as they turned in clement weather
now one by one they turn about,
one days there’s rain, another sun
they move about in thunder storms
she steps in, he steps out
i never see her look his way
he never bows or takes her hand
he steps out, she steps in
they have nothing left to say
they live to serve the weather house
he never sleeps
she never dreams
when he steps in she steps out
