Donny Hathaway - A Song for You lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been so many places In my life and time I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhymes I've acted out my life on stages With ten thousand people watching [Chorus] But we're alone now And I'm singing this song to you [Verse 2] 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 Baby, can't you see through me? [Chorus] Cause we're alone now And I'm singing this song to you [Bridge] You taught me precious secrets Of a true love while holding nothing You came out in front when I was hiding But now I'm so much better And if my words don't come together Listen to the melody 'Cuz my love is in there hiding [Verse 3] I love you in a place Where there's no space or time I love you for my life 'Cuz you' re a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together [Chorus] We were alone And I was singing this song to you [Verse 4] I love you in a place Where there's no space or time I love you for my life 'Cuz you' re a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together [Chorus] 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 Singing this song to you
