Alibi

by Ringo Starr

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 going to 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 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
