Alibi Letra

Hurray For The Riff Raff

The Past Is Still Alive

Letra de Alibi
You don't have to die if you don't wanna die
You can take it all back in the nick of time
Maybe even be a good friend of mine
Baby I
And we won't have to cry if we don't wanna cry
Maybe I got something left in this heart of mine
Awash in the sand on the beach of time
Baby I

You know, you know that time
Can take you for a ride
Can take you by surprise
Maybe you'll roll snake eyes
Baby, tell me why
You gotta play your luck?
Two aces call your bluff
I love you very much
And all that other stuff

Thawing out my heart like meat
I see your track marks poking through your hoodiе sleeve
Tic-tac-toe game to thе destiny
I grieve
Marching towards East River Park
You told me your big secret on the FDR
I couldn't hear you over choppers and the buzzing cars
So far

You know, you know that time
Can take you for a spin
Can really do you in
Can leave you with the bends
Baby, try to live again
And play another hand
Maybe we'll start a band
I wanna understand
Baby, help me understand

'Cause you don't have to die if you don't wanna die
Maybe I got something left that is worth a try
But I'm not gonna be your alibi
This time
