It's five o'clock
I'm just getting home
Roaming on my own
What can I tell her
That she might understand
Why does a man
So in love spread himself so thin?
When he could never win in the end
Just the thought of me losing her
Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe
If I were to lose your love
I'd drown in a river of tears
I need an alibi
Or I'll be caught in the wrong
Don't wanna have to tell a lie
But the thought of me losing her I
Don't think I can handle that
Though it's not as bad
As it may seem
I keep finding trouble
Busting that bubble
Of the good life we've been sharing
It's best to be safe
Than sorry they say
Better to lie than to lose
Then I'll amend my ways
For love
Just the thought of me losing her
Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe
If I were to lose her love
I'd drown in a river of tears
I need an alibi
Or I'll be caught in the wrong
Don't wanna have to tell a lie
But the thought of me losing her
I don't think I could handle that
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what I mean?
Whoo, hey, hey, hey, oooh
Just the thought of me losing her
Makes me wanna cover my tracks babe
If I were to lose your love
I'd drown in a river of tears
Hey, girl I made a mistake
And I'm sorry baby
Though I really love you girl
I made a mistake
And I'm sorry
I need an alibi
Oh yes, yes
Don't wanna have to tell a lie
But the thought of you leaving me
I don't think I could handle that
I need an alibi.
