(D. Pickerill/P. O'Donoughue) 



It's no use you saying

That you can't be staying

'Round this place anymore

Then there's no point remaining

That the sky keeps on raining

'Round this particular door



Then it's no surprise

All you keep giving me

All you keep giving me

Are your alibis

They're only alibis



It's no use you dreaming

Of old times and feelings

That just aren't there anymore

Then there's no use you scheming

About ways to stop me leaving

Because I've heard it all before



And it's no surprise

All you keep giving me

All you keep giving me

Are your alibis

They're only alibis



There's no sense in crying

Or sitting down and sighing

It doesn't work anymore

And talking's out of fashion

There's no substitute for passion

And I can't take it anymore



And it's no surprise

'Cos all you keep giving me

All you keep giving me

Are your alibis

All you keep giving me

All you keep giving me

Are your alibis

All you keep giving me

All you keep giving me

Are your alibis
