Alibies

All of this heartbreak, so very hard on me
It takes my heart and my soul
Breaking me down til I just can't breathe

That witchy woman, got her stronghold on my man
Plays him just like a middle C
Making my union with him grieve

(chorus)
So, when you walk up in here, I hear a safer place
Then my flesh of his flesh
So, longs to be embraced
Then my bones of his bones
They shake from deep inside
See these blues are just one way I hide
Far from these alibies

Each time she calls out
He goes running leaving me
Acts as if it ain't no thing
While my tears cry endlessly

I feel so helpless
So far from right, so wrong
Wondering how I lost myself
Singing with fury in my song

(chorus)
So when you walk up in here, I hear a safer place
Then my flesh of his flesh
So longs to be embraced
Then my bones of his bones
They shake from deep inside
See these blues are just one way I hide
Far from these alibies

So you walk up in here and turn your ears my way
Then my flesh of his flesh
So longs to be embraced
Then my bones of his bones
They shake from deep inside
See these blues are just one way I hide
Far from these alibies

Alibies, So many dog gone lies
so many alibies
Oh don't you know
Tell a woman a lie one time, she just might not trust you no more
Tell a woman a lie two times, she just may walk on out the door

Too many alibies, too many alibies
Oh all of this heartbreak has got me down...
