Text: Donny Hathaway. Donny Hathaway. A Song For You.

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, and i've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life in stages, with ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now, and I'm singing this song to 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, baby, can't you see through me
Cuz we're alone now, and I'm singing this song to you

You taught me precious secrets of a true love withholding nothing
You came in front when i was hidin
But now I'm so much better
And if my words don't some together
Listen to the melody, cuz my love is in there hiding

I love you in a place, where there's no space or time
I love you for my life, you're a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember we we're together
We we're alone and i was singing this to you.
[Repeat]

We we're alone and I was singing this song to you
We we're alone and I was singing this song to you
We we're alone and i was singing this song to you...
