"Song For You" lyrics

"Song For You"
(originally by Leon Russell)

I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
And I've made some bad rhymes

I've acted out my life on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we were alone now
And I was singing this song to you

I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly
And darling, darling can't you see that
There's no one more important to me
Baby can't you see right through me
That we were alone now
And I was singing this song to you

You taught me precious secrets
Of a true love with holding nothing
See you came out in front
When I was hiding

Ooh and now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Just listen to this melody
'Cause my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place
Where there was no space or time
I love you for my life
You're a friend of mine

And when my life is over
Just remember when we were together
We were alone
And I was singing this song to you
To you

I love you in a place
Where there was no space or time
I love you for my life
You're a friend of mine

And when my life is over
Just 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
We were alone
And I was singing this song to you
I was singing my song baby
I was singing this song to you
