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 life 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?   There's no one more important to me   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 '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   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
