A Song For You

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my life in stages, with ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now, and I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly, but honey can't you see
There's no one more important to me, darling can't you please see through me
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholding nothing
You came out in front when I was hiding, but now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together, listen to the melody
'Cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
'Cause we are alone now and I am singing my song
Singing this song to you
