A Song For You

(leon russell)



I've been so many places

In my life and time

I've sung a lot of songs

I made some bad rhymes



I've acted out my life in stages

Ten thousand people watching

But we're alone now

I'm singing this song for you



I know your image of me

Is what i hope to be

I treated you unkindly

But darling can't you see?

There's no-one more important to me

Oh, baby, can't you please see through me?

'cause we're alone now and

I'm singing this song for you



You taught me precious secrets

Of the truth withholding nothing

You came out in front

I was hiding

Oh, but now i'm so much better

If the words don't come together

Just listen to the melody

'cause my love in there hiding

Ooh, ooh



Oh, i love you in a place

Where there's no space or time

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 for you

We were alone

I was singing this song for you, oh

Singing

I was singing, singing, singing, singing, singing this song for you

Oh, yes

Singing this song for you
