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 watchin'
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 girl, can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darling, can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singin' my song for you
You taught me precious secrets
The truth, withholdin' nothin'
You came out in front and I was hiding
Ooh, but now I'm so much better
So 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 is no space or time
I love you for my life, cause you're a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing my song for you
And when my life is over, remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing my song for you
