Lyrics Ringo Starr

Ringo Starr

Alibi

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

Lookin' at you, lookin' at me, I knew you understood

I've been down for so long, looking for a good disguise

Feelin' 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 waitin' 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

I'm digging holes, acting roles with no lines to say

I was waitin' for you to come into my life

Making up stories, looking for an alibi

Looking for an alibi

Oh, looking for an alibi

Oh, those alibis
