Sweet Alibis
Can't take no more
Of your sweet alibis
Yesterday’s lies-
Friendless goodbyes
I've had my fill
Of your sweet alibis
When I look in your eyes
It's driving me crazy
Four in the morning
And I hear you coming in
Trying to pretend
I don’t know where you've been-
How could the fire
Suddenly go bad?-
Or am I losing
Something I never had?
Each night I lay
So cold in your arms
Telling myself
You still love me-
And every day
Gets harder to hide
Somethin' has died
And it's driving me crazy-
Driving me crazy
And though I know
I'd be better alonе
I just can't let go
Of the best lovе I've known
But could I live without
Your sweet alibis
Don't look in my eyes-
You’re driving me crazy-
Driving me crazy-
Driving me crazy
