Alibi

It's five o'clock

I'm just getting home

Roaming on my own

What can I tell her

That she might understand

Why does a man

So in love spread himself so thin?

When he could never win in the end

Just the thought of me losing her

Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe

If I were to lose your love

I'd drown in a river of tears

I need an alibi

Or I'll be caught in the wrong

Don't wanna have to tell a lie

But the thought of me losing her I

Don't think I can handle that

Though it's not as bad

As it may seem

I keep finding trouble

Busting that bubble

Of the good life we've been sharing

It's best to be safe

Than sorry they say

Better to lie than to lose

Then I'll amend my ways

For love

Just the thought of me losing her

Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe

If I were to lose her love

I'd drown in a river of tears

I need an alibi

Or I'll be caught in the wrong

Don't wanna have to tell a lie

But the thought of me losing her

I don't think I could handle that

Do you know what I mean?

Do you know what I mean?

Whoo, hey, hey, hey, oooh

Just the thought of me losing her

Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe

If I were to lose your love

I'd drown in a river of tears

Hey, girl I made a mistake

And I'm sorry baby

Though I really love you girl

I made a mistake

And I'm sorry

I need an alibi

Oh yes, yes

Don't wanna have to tell a lie

But the thought of you leaving me

I don't think I could handle that

I need an alibi.
