Dylan – The Alibi Lyrics

I saw it in your eyes on the night that we met
Devil in disguise, lover I won’t forget
Caught me by surprise, baby I was a mess
And of all my mistakes, you’re the one I regret.
Shut down in the middle of June
Cried all summer cause I waited for you
But you ran away, never told me the truth
And looking at it now, what I was meant to do?
I had to say goodbye

But if there was a crime
If there was a body
If there was a knife
If you told a real good, real bad lie
I’d be standing by your side
If there was a way
That someone at the scene had saw your face
I could tell them where you were that night
You were standing by my side
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
Alibi
For a moment you were heaven above

I was drowning in the weight of your love
Never thought that you would just cut it off
What was magic
(Ended up damn tragic)
And maybe I should just let it be
But I’d do anything to keep you with me
Only you could make a catastrophe, seem romantic
(Oh you’re such a bad habit)
You know I had to say my goodbye
But if there was a crime
If there was a body
If there was a knife
If you told a real good, real bad lie

I’d be standing by your side
If there was a way
That someone at the scene had saw your face
I could tell them where you were that night
You were standing by my side
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
Alibi
Sometimes, I wonder if the memories keep you up at night
Of you and I
We’re destined for disaster, must have lost my mind
Cause I would be the alibi-bi-bi-bi
But if there was a crime

If there was a body
If there was a knife
If you told a real good, real bad lie
I’d be standing by your side
If there was a way
That someone at the scene had saw your face
I could tell them where you were that night
You were standing by my side
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
I could be your alibi-bi-bi-bi
Alibi
