    Lyrics:
    What became of alexandra did she make it through? 
    What kind of woman gets to love you 
    Wrote us all a little note, nothing left to lose
    What kind of woman gets to love you 
    I need to know 
    Where did alexandra go
    Alexandra had no fear she lived out in the woods 
    She'd tell you what you're doing wrong if she thinks she’ll be understood
    Pulls her socks up to her knees
    Finds diamonds in the drain
    One more diamond to add to her chain. 
    I need to know 
    Where does alexandra go
    Where did alexandra go
    It won't change how I'm feeling but you can try to help me understand 
    If she loved you like a woman did you feel like a man?
    I need to know
    Where did alexandra go
    Where did alexandra go
    You had to say, your shit to bed you could not bear the unsaid 
    I had to try a fuck to give, why should I die so you can live? 
    What did alexandra know 
    What did alexandra know

    This is such a brilliant song. Reminds me of Joni Mitchell and the late 60's recording style is amazing... Music was at its best when recorded in this raw and real way. So glad there are artists like Laura still creating organic sounding music. I love the album!

      I agree, plus I notice some of her vocal phrasing reminds me of Gerry Rafferty at times in this song.

    If this is a reference to Leonard Cohen’s Alexandra Leaving then I know exactly where she is. She is also mentioned in a Dylan song called Angelina with the words “She was stolen from her mother when she was three days old”

    • @Lazariuk
      @Lazariuk 2 года назад

      Again if that is the reference you need to appreciate that Leonard is essentially a liar and as Dylan said “He has a mind that multiplies the smallest matter and a tongue that cannot speak but only flatter”

    Does anyone want to share the interpretation of the song?

    • @emmanuelgrana5315
      @emmanuelgrana5315 4 года назад +3

      I'm not fluent in English, and maybe there are some things I had lost in translation. But I interpret that Alexandra is a smart and introspective girl who finds out something. Something like her partner cheated on her, maybe. She doesn't recognize herself anymore. Now she is very emotional and she is no longer the Alexandra which she was comfortable being. I don't know, I'd like to know what do you interpret.

    • @thaisquecida
      @thaisquecida 3 года назад

      @@emmanuelgrana5315 The first interpretation that came to my mind was that this could be a song about a woman who had a relationship with a man who usually doesn't open himself for love, as if she was asking herself if they made it through or if the same pattern happened again. But I really liked your interpretation! It makes total sense, including the last part, when she asks what afterall did Alexandra, who had no fear over the situtation, really know... and in middle of the lyrics, where did this fearless woman go
