Leon Russell
A Song for You (2001 recording)
[Verse 1]
I've been so many places
In my life and time
Sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhymes
Acted out my life on stage
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and
I'm singing this song for you

[Verse 2]
And I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly
Can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling can't you please see through me
When we're alone and
I'm singing this song for you

[Bridge]
You taught me precious secrets
The truth withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
If these words don't come together
Listen to the melody
My love is in there hiding
[Verse 3 - Outro]
Now I love you in a place
Where there's no space and time
I love you for my life
Darling you're a friend of mine
When my life is over
Remember when we were together, oh
We were alone so long ago
We were alone
And I was singing, yes I was singing
Singing this little song for you
