Stevie has never said (at least I have never heard her saying or haven't read nothing concrete) what this song is exactly about. But if you read her comments you can understand that the story of Alice is a referance to her dubble life. I mean life between Fleetwood Mac and her solo carieer and life between carieer and her personal life.
Well, here's what she said:
“Much of Alice in Stevie Nicks’ Alice is Stevie writing about Alice in parallel back to Stevie, so I’m really writing about Alice’s adventures as in comparison to my adventures,” she once explained. “For Alice to run back and forth between the looking glass is kind of what I perceive my whole life to be, running back and forth between two places — which is obviously my career with Fleetwood Mac and my career by myself. And then of course, there’s the other part of my life, which is my own life, which there isn’t very much of. But I always seem to be running to one place or the other.”
