Alibi

I got off work just past eleven
 Laid one finger to the breeze
 You can almost taste the action
 On nights like these
 Trees were bending in the wind
 You were forty miles away
 And I was headed in your direction
 I've been waiting all day, I've been waiting all day
 ♪
 Moon over West Covina, was huge and white
 And I was like a patient on a table
 Headed toward the light
 Lean toward the center divider
 Feel the wind in my hair
 Keep a light up in your window
 I'm gonna be right there, I'm gonna be right there
 With a gleam in my eye
 And an almost airtight alibi
 ♪
 Down by the chemistry building
 I found a quiet place to park
 And I made my way down the street toward your place
 Stepping lightly in the dark
 Climbed the steps up to your doorway
 Like a man prepared to jump beneath a train
 It's real warm outside tonight
 Maybe tomorrow it rains, maybe tomorrow it rains
 ♪
 Inside your room we shut the window
 And we turned on a fan
 And we lay there together in the darkness
 I can keep a secret if you can
 Finishing one another's sentences
 Like a pair of identical twins
 Your boyfriend's out of town until Tuesday
 And nobody saw me come in, nobody saw me come in
 With a gleam in my eye
 And an almost airtight alibi
