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 love in stages
|
With ten thousand people watching
|
But we're alone now and I'm singin' this song for you
|
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
|
I've treated you unkindly but baby can't you see
|
(baby can't you see now)
|
|
There's no one more important to me (baby)
|
Baby can't you please see through me 'cause we're alone now and
|
I'm singin' this song for you
|
|
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholdin' nothin'
|
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 (listen to the melody)
|
cause my love's 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 (you are a friend of mine)
|
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
|
We were alone and
|
|
I was singin' this song for you
|
We were alone and
|
I was singin' this song for you
|
We were alone and
|
I was singin' this song, singin' this song for you
|
