Keep my heart in mind
When you're going out tonight
And you're feeling
Cold as ice
But you need an alibi
If you're thinking of all those times
When the sun and moon aligned
Well there was something
In your eyes
Now its fading out of sight
And oh-oh-oh I hate to think
That it's someone else now
You were always everything
'Til I gave it all away
I'll be standing on my porch tonight
Waiting for the summer stars to rise
I may cry
But I'm still your alibi
Do you remember leaving me
So tender like a willow tree
Oh I'm needing
To be set free
But this silence
Is killing me
Every reason to make a move
But the freedom is more to leave
So I'll sit here
Scaling the bruises
'Cause I never
Wanna choose
And oh-oh-oh I hate to think
That it's someone else now
You were always everything
'Til I gave it all away
I'll be standing on my porch tonight
Waiting for the summer stars to rise
I may cry
But I'm still your alibi
If to love I would return
Pray the flames so softly burn
If the beauty's worth the pain
Let us be the last refrain
May the night have mercy still
Keep us from the devil's shrill
I'll be standing on my porch tonight
Waiting for the summer stars to rise
I may cry
But I'm still your alibi
But I'm still your alibi
