Lyrics

I've been so many places in my (A)life and time.

(F)I've sung a lot of songs,

I've made some (Bm7)bad rhyme.

I've (Bbmaj7)acted out my love in stages with (Gm7)ten thousand people watching,

(Bb)but we're alone (F)now and I'm singing (Bb)this song for you.

(Dm)I know your image of me is what I (A)hope to be.

(F)I've treated you unkindly, but darlin',

can't you see?

There's (Bbmaj7)no one more important to me.

(Gm7)Darlin', can't you please see through me?

(Bb)'Cause we're alone (F)now and I'm singing (Bb)this song for you.

(C)You (Dm)taught me precious (C#aug)secrets of the (F)truth,

withholding nothing.

(Bbmaj7)You came out in (Bb)front and I was hiding.

(C)But (Dm)now I'm so much (C#aug)better,

and if my (F)words don't come (Bm7)together,

(Bb)listen to the melody,

(Am7)'cause my (G7sus)love is (G7)in there (Bb)hiding.

I (Dm)love you in a place where there's no (A7)space or time.

I (F)love you for my life;

you are a (Bm7)friend of mine.

And (Bbmaj7)when my life is over,

(Gm7)remember when we were (Am7)together.

(Bb)We were alone (F)and I was singing (Bb)this song for you.

(Bb)You We were alone (F)and I was singing (Bb)this song for you.

We were alone (F)and I was singing (Bb)this song for (F)you.
