Miss Havisham

Like a black and white detective,
I’ve looked deep into your alibis
Truth always has its directive
the sources all agree
that in their eyes you told them lies
you never told to me.
Your sky gray eyes
Are such a gorgeous alibi

But they can’t lie
At least they cannot lie to me.

Though I tried and tried to
Get the blue into your eyes
Your sky grey eyes won’t ever, ever never lie to me.
I admit you had me buffaloed
And I know it was quite a show
You had the motive had the means
and the opportunity.
The only thing you never really
counted on was me.
Your sky gray eyes
Are such a gorgeous alibi

But they can’t lie
At least they cannot lie to me.

Though I tried and tried to
Get the blue into your eyes
Your sky gray eyes won’t ever, ever never lie to me.

She said "Break their hearts, my pride and hope,
break their hearts and have no mercy!"
I could have shown you love was great
Exept for the expectations.
Your sky gray eyes
Are such a gorgeous alibi

But they can’t lie
At least they cannot lie to me.

Though I tried and tried to
Get the blue into your eyes
Your sky gray eyes won’t ever, ever never lie to me.
