Did you come down to give me

Or take me away

I had so many things to tell you

But now I don't have much to say

This feeling like we're hiding out

Is getting in the way



Let's quit the town just look around

There's nothing here to keep us alive

If they try to run us down

You know I'm on your side

And I want you to be my alibi

So they won't find me

And they won't find you

And we may tell lies

But we may be true



Did you come down to take me

Or give me away

I had so many things to ask you

Now you don't have much to say

And these alchoholic afternoons

Are getting in the way



Let's quit the town just look around

There's nothing here to keep us alive

If they try to run us down

You know I'm on your side

And I want you to be my alibi

So they won't find me

And they won't find you

And we may tell lies

But we may be true

I want to be your alibi

Till the day we die
