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
And 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?
So many things to ask you
Now you don't have much to say
And these alcoholic 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
They won't find me and they won't find you
And we may tell lies and we may be true
I want to be your alibi
'Til the day we die
