Alibi Video (MV)

I
I never put by silver
I never put by silver
For the boatman's fare

And I
Am a wayward sailor
I'm a wayward sailor
With a guilty stare

I've been looking for an alibi
I've been keeping you in mind
I've failed at gold and guile
And bibles never stood a chance in hell
But in your eyes I see the light this time

You
Are a pool of lamplight
A kiss at midnight
On a gated lawn
Your voice
Is candied moonlight
A sparrow's first flight
In the early dawn

I've been looking for an alibi
I've been keeping you in mind
I've failed at gold and guile
And bibles never stood a chance in hell
But in your eyes I see the light this time

I
Am a drug store novel
The plot's just awful
But the heart is true
I will kill every monster
And the evil wizard
To stand next to you

I've been looking for an alibi
I've been keeping you in mind
I've failed at gold and guile
But when they see me standing by your side
I swear they'll find me innocent this time

I
I never put by silver
I never put by silver
But I'll come with pearls
