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 mad rhymes
I've acted out my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now, and I'm singing that song to you

I know your image of me is what I hoped to be
I treated you unkindly, but darling, can't you see?
There's no one more important to me
Darling, can you please see through me?
'Cause we're alone now, and I'm singing my song for you

You taught me precious secrets
Of a true but holy nothing
You came out in front and 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 and time
I love you for my life
You're a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone, and I was singing that song to you

I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life
You were a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together

We were alone, and I was singing that song to you
We were alone, and I was singing that song to you
We were alone and I was singing that song
Singing this song to you
