Lyrics Sweet Alibis - Carmen McRae

Sweet Alibis

Can’t take no more of your sweet alibis
Yesterday’s lies
Friendless goodbyes
I’ve had my fill of your sweet alibis
When I look in your eyes
It’s driving me crazy
Four in the morning and I hear you coming in
Trying to pretend
I don’t know where you’ve been
How could the fire suddenly go bad
Or am I losing something I never had
Each night I lay so cold in your arms
Telling myself
You still love me
And every day gets harder to hide
Something has died
And it’s driving me crazy
Oo, driving me crazy
Oo, driving me crazy
And though I know I’d be better alone
I just can’t let go
Of the best love I’ve known
But could I live without your sweet alibis
Don’t look in my eyes
You’re driving me crazy
Ooh, you’re driving me crazy
Ooh, you’re driving me crazy
You’re driving me crazy
