Out in the courtyard, cold & it's so hard

Now Betty's crying, she wants to die

Coz it's over, die, but she...



Knows that her grieving, it's not achieving

What Bet's believing, he will return



[Chorus:]

Alecs gone, Alecs gone, Alecs gone

Alecs gone, Alecs gone, Alecs gone



Away oo oo oo gone away oo oo ooo



Down in The Rovers, Bet can't get over

What he said to her, he will return



Alecs gone...

He's gone, done a bunk [guitar bit]



Betty's still dreaming, inside she's screaming

Out for the day that he will return



Alecs gone...
