The Alibi

I saw it in your eyes on the night that we metLo vi en tus ojos la noche en que nos conocimos

Devil in disguise, lover, I won't forgetEl diablo disfrazado, amante, no olvidaré

Caught me by surprise, baby, I was a messMe tomaste por sorpresa, cariño, estaba hecho un desastre

And, of all my mistakes, you're the one I regretY, de todos mis errores, tú eres el que lamento

Shut down in the middle of June (middle of June)Cerrado en medio de junio (en medio de junio)

Cried all summer 'cause I've waited for you (waited for you)Lloré todo el verano porque te esperé (te esperé)

But you ran away, never told me the truthPero te escapaste, nunca me dijiste la verdad

And, looking at it now, what was I meant to do?Y, mirándolo ahora, ¿qué se suponía que debía hacer?

I (you know I) had (had to) to (say) say goodbyeTuve (sabes que tuve) que (tuve) decir adiós

But if there was a crimePero si hubiera un crimen

If there was a body, if there was a knifeSi hubiera un cuerpo, si hubiera un cuchillo

If you told a real good, real bad lieSi contaras una mentira muy buena, muy mala

I'd be standing by your sideEstaría a tu lado

If there was a way (if there was a way)Si hubiera una forma (si hubiera una forma)

That someone at the scene had saw your faceDe que alguien en la escena hubiera visto tu rostro

I could tell 'em where you were that nightPodría decirles dónde estabas esa noche

You were standing by my sideEstabas a mi lado

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

For a moment you were having a bathPor un momento estabas tomando un baño

I was drowning in the weight of your loveYo me estaba ahogando en el peso de tu amor

Never thought that you would just cut it offNunca pensé que simplemente lo cortarías

But it was magic (a goddamn tragedy)Pero fue mágico (una maldita tragedia)

And maybe I should just let it beY tal vez debería dejarlo estar

But I'd do anything to keep you with mePero haría cualquier cosa para mantenerte conmigo

Only you could make a catastropheSolo tú podrías convertir una catástrofe

Seem romantic (oh, you're such a bad habit)En algo romántico (oh, eres un mal hábito)

You know I had to say my goodbyeSabes que tuve que decir adiós

But if there was a crimePero si hubiera un crimen

If there was a body, if there was a knifeSi hubiera un cuerpo, si hubiera un cuchillo

If you told a real good, real bad lieSi contaras una mentira muy buena, muy mala

I'd be standing by your sideEstaría a tu lado

If there was a way (if there was a way)Si hubiera una forma (si hubiera una forma)

That someone at the scene had saw your faceDe que alguien en la escena hubiera visto tu rostro

I could tell 'em where you were that nightPodría decirles dónde estabas esa noche

You were standing by my side (we)Estabas a mi lado (nosotros)

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

SometimesA veces

I wonder if the memories keep you up at nightMe pregunto si los recuerdos te mantienen despierto por la noche

(Does it kep you up at night?)(¿Te mantienen despierto por la noche?)

Of you and IDe ti y yo

We're destined for disaster, must've lost my mindEstamos destinados al desastre, debo haber perdido la cabeza

'Cause I would be the alibi-bi-bi-biPorque sería la coartada-da-da-da

But if there was a crimePero si hubiera un crimen

If there was a body, if there was a knifeSi hubiera un cuerpo, si hubiera un cuchillo

If you told a real good, real bad lieSi contaras una mentira muy buena, muy mala

I'd be standing by your sideEstaría a tu lado

That someone at the scene had saw your faceDe que alguien en la escena hubiera visto tu rostro

I could tell 'em where you were that nightPodría decirles dónde estabas esa noche

You were standing by my sideEstabas a mi lado

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da

I could be your alibi-bi-bi-biPodría ser tu coartada-da-da-da
