Alibi Lyrics - Ringo Starr

By Joe Walsh and Richard Starkey 

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'D UNDERSTOOD. 

I'VE BEEN DOWN FOR SO LONG, 

LOOKING FOR A GOOD DISGUISE. 

FEELIN' SORRY FOR MYSELF, 

I DIDN'T REALISE. 

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. (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. 

OOH, LOOKING FOR AN ALIBI.
