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
All I know is that Alexandra came here to listen to this masterpiece. 🧡

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.
The chords in this song sound like an invention and the vocals are ancient. This song crushes me!
Such purity of soul is long gone... Bravo! this is an excellent song.
2:21-2:48 the best part
Very genuine sound I like she sounds like joni but is her own voice and talent and its refreshing to have a new joni on the road just as talented .
this is an amazing, well written song , she is very talented .
I'm so in love with the entire album, but this one is in my top 5 for sure.
I absolutely ADORE this whole album! Her voice enchants me. I could cry every time I listen to it! ♥️♥️
2nd after the title track for me
It takes all of one minute to realize this song is a classic.
this song made me like my name for the first time :)
You mean she's written a song called "Lee"? LOL
You can listen to Aleksandra by Angel Dimov. It's in Serbian but you can translate, it's beautiful
Are you kidding me?! Your name is BEAUTIFUL :)
I love my name ❤❤

Stunning- such a talent - my new favourite Laura song!

Alexandra heard this ❤
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”
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”
Ê trem xonado sô
My name is Laura Alexandra and I write songs ahhha I love you Laura marling
Where did adam sandler go 🤷🏻♂️
Gooo!
Well I guess that song is also great for Baywatch actress Alexandra Paul.
who is Alexandra
El puente me mata
Sounds very Joni Mitchell.
Count Buckles sent drove me here.
Does anyone want to share the interpretation of the song?
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.
@@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
Hehehehe
