a song for you

well i've been a lot of places in my life and time

i've sung a lot of songs and i've made some bad rhyme

i've acted out my love in stages with ten thousand people watchin'

now we're alone and i am singin' my song for you

and i know your image of me is what i hope to be

i've treated you unkindly but darling can't you see

no one more important to me darling can't you please see through me

cause now we're alone and i am singing my song for you

well you taught me precious secrets of a truth with holding nothin'

you came out in front but i was hiding

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

and 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 my song for you

and we were alone and i was singing my song for you
