| I walked past you in town, looked like you were happy
|
| You went with your new one that I think you have
|
| And you probably saw me before I left
|
| Tried to play cool as if everything was normal
|
| But in fact, I'm still in my shell
|
| And I want to push you out but you will come back of course
|
| In my fairytale land, you take me by the hand again
|
| No more fights and crying - there we are together again
|
| And they play our song like in Spain
|
| Take off our shoes and we take a little dance to it
|
| But when I wake up, I miss your face
|
| Thinking about the day you ran - for me: it just did not exist
|
| Why can I not just take and forget you
|
| Why do you come back In my dreams say
|
| Tonight I thought about when we did our Sunday thing
|
| How do I get well again after you broke me
|
| I empty myself of the chords I have laid
|
| Let the piano play until it turns carbon black
|
| And let the strings take us to our place
|
| Can not let you go - the only thing I think is that
|

|
| Once upon a time you were mine, but now you're just a dream
|
| I sometimes see us in my fairytale land where we meet and hang out for a while
|
| But I wake up in my loneliness in our so-called room
|
| Just want to fall asleep again and wake up in my dream
|
| Alibi - Verse 2
|
| It's been a while since we saw each other - have barely thought about it
|
| But two years ago it was us
|
| I gave you a song, wrote a tune
|
| You cried because it was nice, you forgave my idiocy
|
| We were a unit, we were singular
|
| Unite on a winter day - what I remember remains
|
| Inside me and it burns faintly
|
| Will probably always be like that for everything I have
|
| Reminds me of you and it feels
|
| Do not want to sell the bed but darling I am ashamed
|
| When someone else is in it, it gets so wrong
|
| But I have to move on for my own part
|
| It was my own fault - should have given more
|
| But it's easy to be hindsighted - easy to see
|
| In the rearview mirror and distinguish right from wrong
|
| Just need to let go before it grows any more
|
| But in the dream it is we against them
|
| We were happy as wine and song
|
| So I stroll to a sunset
|
| But when I wake up it's empty inside - just want to fall asleep again
