Alibi - The Mountain Goats[00:00:00]
Written by:John Darnielle[00:00:01]
I got off work just past eleven[00:00:12]
Laid one finger to the breeze[00:00:16]
You can almost taste the action[00:00:19]
On nights like these[00:00:22]
Trees were bending in the wind[00:00:25]
You were forty miles away[00:00:28]
And I was headed in your direction[00:00:30]
I've been waiting all day I've been waiting all day[00:00:34]
Moon over west covina[00:00:50]
Was huge and white[00:00:53]
And I was like a patient on a table[00:00:55]
Headed for the light[00:00:59]
Lean toward the center divider[00:01:01]
Feel the wind in my hair[00:01:05]
Keep a light up in your window[00:01:08]
I'm gonna be right there[00:01:11]
I'm gonna be right there[00:01:13]
With a gleam in my eye[00:01:16]
And an almost[00:01:19]
Airtight[00:01:22]
Alibi[00:01:24]
Down by the chemistry building[00:01:39]
I found a quiet place to park[00:01:42]
And I made my way down[00:01:44]
The street toward your place[00:01:46]
Stepping lightly in the dark[00:01:48]
Climbed the steps up to your door way[00:01:51]
Like a man prepared[00:01:54]
To jump under neath a train[00:01:55]
It's real warm outside tonight[00:01:57]
Maybe tommorow it rains[00:02:01]
Maybe tommorow it rains[00:02:02]
Inside your room we shut the window[00:02:16]
And we turned on a fan[00:02:19]
And we lay there together[00:02:21]
In the darkness[00:02:23]
I can keep a secret if you can[00:02:25]
Finishing one another's sentences[00:02:28]
Like a pair of identical twins[00:02:30]
Your boyfriend's out of town[00:02:34]
Until tuesday[00:02:35]
And nobody saw me come in[00:02:37]
Nobody saw me come in[00:02:39]
With a gleam in my eye[00:02:42]
And an almost[00:02:46]
Airtight[00:02:48]
