Words & Alibis

Old words and the same 'ole moves The ones that always kill ya He throws 'em down in a corner booth 'Round the block so he can't hear ya Sing your worries and beg for mercy From someone who ain't even there Neon lights and rendezvous's When he's gone he hides the words I do So you let Rimes sing your blues And you wonder what you can do To make him care No it just ain't fair That you choose to be lonely When he's gone tonight You keep hoping that it takes him Just a little while to sweep in And offer you a reason To finally believe in His words & alibis Deep-cut country song makes you feel like You should just hold on To those memories on your wall That replay each time you walk your hall But it ain't fair That he just don't care That you choose to be lonely When he's gone tonight You keep hoping that it takes him Just a little while to sweep in And offer you a reason To finally believe in His words & alibis It's time to quit being lonely 'Cause girl I'm here tonight We both know he'll never make it And your heart he'll only break it So many chances being wasted On someone who's only saying Words & alibis
