Song | Sell Your Alibi |
Artist | Amely |
Album | The Raleigh Sessions |
You were my bird, you taught me to sing | |
But I always knew that you'd stretch your wings. | |
Now that you're gone, it's hard to believe | |
If given the chance, would you fly back to me? | |
In awe, I watch while the sky burns like fire, | |
Before it says goodnight. | |
Caught in this permanent reprise, | |
Where all we do is say goodbye. | |
Reliving every breath, recalling every line, | |
Before you sell your alibi | |
You were my song, yeah you were my inspiration. | |
I heard it in a dream till I woke up | |
Then you were gone. There was a mannequin your place, | |
How could every frame turn so unreal? | |
With words so quiet like beckoning silence that change the tide. | |
Caught in this permanent reprise, | |
Where all we do is say goodbye. | |
Reliving every breath, recalling every line, | |
Before you sell your alibi | |
I wait and watch while my world turns expired, and we become | |
Caught in this permanent reprise, | |
Where all we do is say goodbye. | |
Reliving every breath, recalling every time, | |
Before you sell | |
Woah | |
Woah | |
Reliving every breath, recalling every time, | |
Before you sell your alibi | |
You were my bird, you taught me to sing | |
But I always knew that you'd stretch your wings. |
You were my bird, you taught me to sing | |
But I always knew that you' d stretch your wings. | |
Now that you' re gone, it' s hard to believe | |
If given the chance, would you fly back to me? | |
In awe, I watch while the sky burns like fire, | |
Before it says goodnight. | |
Caught in this permanent reprise, | |
Where all we do is say goodbye. | |
Reliving every breath, recalling every line, | |
Before you sell your alibi | |
You were my song, yeah you were my inspiration. | |

Then you were gone. There was a mannequin your place, | |
