A Song For You Lyrics
I've been so many places
In my life and times
I've sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my love on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you
And I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I treat anyone kindly
But darling, can't you see?
There's no one more important to me
Darling, can't you please see through me?
Because we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrets
Of a truth, witholding nothing
You came out in front
And I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
And if my words dont come together
Listen to the melody
Because my love is there, hiding
I love you in a place
Where there's no space and time
I love you for all 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 to you
But I love you in a place
Where there's no space and time
I love you for all 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
And I was singing this song for you
We were alone
And I was singing my song
Singing this song for you
In my life and times
I've sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhymes
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you
Is what I hope to be
I treat anyone kindly
But darling, can't you see?
Darling, can't you please see through me?
Because we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you
Of a truth, witholding nothing
You came out in front
And I was hiding
And if my words dont come together
Listen to the melody
Because my love is there, hiding
Where there's no space and time
I love you for all my life
You are a friend of mine
Remember when we were together
We were alone
And I was singing this song to you
Where there's no space and time
I love you for all my life
You are a friend of mine
Remember when we were together
We were alone
And I was singing this song for you
And I was singing this song for you
We were alone
And I was singing my song
Singing this song for you

I think it's one of the most heartfelt and accurate declarations of love there is. "I love you in a place where there is no space and time." Love is perhaps the most immaterial and hardest to define concept, yet it is the purest and most natural. Science cannot explain it, time and space have no bearing on it, it is often irrational, and makes no sense, and yet it makes the world go round and life worth bearing. Love is deep.
One of the most well-written songs of the 70s. What words and that voice!
