You sit and wonder just why   You sit and dream yourself an alibi      I've got so much to tell you   But where to begin?   I'm walking with open arms now, let me in   Was keeping it under my skin   I felt it escape   Now I've got so much to give you   It's getting away      You sit and wonder just why   You sit and dream yourself an alibi      It's no surprise, it's no surprise, it's no surprise      It's getting away from me   It's getting away      You sit and wonder just why   You sit and dream yourself an alibi      It's no surprise, it's no surprise, it's no surprise      You sit and wonder (it's no surprise, it's no surprise)   You sit and dream (it's no surprise, it's no surprise)      It's no surprise, it's no surprise, it's no surprise   It's getting away from me, it's getting away from me
