I didn't think much of him till tonight
When he made a weird joke that you would have liked
Well, I felt a pang and an instant rapport
Reminds me of someone that I met before
So I ended up with this boy until three
And that sort of thing is just so unlike me, but
The way his eyes widened, and he talked with his hands
I could pretend I was with you again

He's no lullaby
But he's alright, and
You know I can't lie, yeah
I'm still thinking 'bout ya all the time

Mmm, mmm

Been busy convincing myself of a feeling
'Cause I'm gonna show the whole world that I'm healing
But I'm not at my best, yeah, I'm so far behind
Just floating around with you still on my mind
So I entertain the idea of this man
I'm trying to prove to myself that I can
Feel something for somebody other than you
You might not believe it, but you won't find proof

'Cause he's my alibi
That I'm alright, and
He's my alibi, yeah
'Cause when I'm with him, I pretend I'm moving on with my life
And he's no lullaby
But he's alright, and
You know I can't lie, yeah
I'm still thinking 'bout ya all the time

Mmm, mmm
