Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Come little Girlie let’s fly away
Into the land of dreams
Far from the whirly gay cabaret
Up with the bright sunbeams
Just let’s suppose we are children again
Just to the past let us gaze
Come take a trip on a nursery train
Back to our childhood days
Chorus
Let’s wonder hand in hand
To dreamy Wonderland
Upon a cloud we’ll glide
Side by side we’ll stand
We’ll float right through the air
And when we’re landed there
I’ll build a Fairy Palace for you
My Alice in Wonderland
- Most ev’ry Christmas I used to spend
Hours in Wonderland
Happy was this Miss just to pretend
She was a Princess grand
There with my playthings I dreamed of a boy
Hoping my dreams would come true
I used to say thing I thought he’d enjoy
That boy resembled you
