You don't like to take the train home
'Cause you don't wanna fall asleep again
Waking up at metropolitan
Was never part of the plan but it happened again

Now, why are you going? Why are you crying?
I know, I know, I take it past the line
I don't know where I'm going, but I'll be fine
As long as you'll accept my alibi, my alibi

You always had a heavy heart
I never knew the answers to your scars
I think you made me cry that time
Said you like the way my eyebags make me look high

Now, why are you going? Why are you crying?
I know, I know, I take it past the line
I don't know where I'm going, but I'll be fine
As long as you'll accept my alibi, my alibi

Waking up at metropolitan
I loved you for the things you did without thinking
I never said it, but it always made me grin
'Cause I loved you for the things you did without thinking
And I wish we could just take the train home one more time
And you'd fall asleep on my shoulder just one more time
Wake you up at your stop just one more time
And I'd say: See you tomorrow, just one more time, but it'd be a lie

Now, why are you going?
(Ooh, oh-ooh)
Now, why are you going?
(Hmm-mm) my alibi
