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

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

Now we're together
it's gonna 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
Like digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say

I was waiting for you to come into my life
Making up stories, looking for an alibi
Looking for an alibi

Oh, looking for an alibi
Oh, making those alibis
Oh, looking for an alibi
