[Verse 1]
You came into my life
When I was looking for an alibi
You looked in my eyes
And I could tell you no lie
I was making life, feel all right
But it wasn't good
Looking at you, looking at me
I knew you understood
I've been down for so long
Looking for a good disguise
Feeling sorry for myself
I didn't realize
That I was digging holes
Acting roles
With no lines to say
I was losing sleep, counting sheep
That never went away

[Chorus]
I was waiting for you to come into my life
Making up stories or looking for an alibi

[Verse 2]
Now we're together
It's going to be never
We'll be parted again
I've loved you since the day we met
And that was way back when
I was making life, feel all right
In the same old way. (same old way)
I'm digging holes
Acting roles
With no lines to say
[Chorus]
I was waiting for you to come into my life
Making up stories, looking for an alibi
Looking for an alibi

[Outro]
Oh, looking for an alibi
Oh, making those alibis
Oh, looking for an alibi
