A SONG FOR YOU

WRITER LEON RUSSELL

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 love 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

Baby can't you see now

There's no one more important to me

Baby

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

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

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
