Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life in stages, with ten thousand people watchin'
But we're alone now and I'm singin' a song to you
[Verse 2]
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly, but, darlin', can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Baby, can't you see through me
'Cause we're all alone now, and I'm singin' this song to you
[Verse 3]
You taught me precious secrets of the truth, withholding nothin'
You came out in front when I was hidin'
Now, I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody, 'cause my love is there hiding
[Verse 4]
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 when we were together
We were along and I was singin' this song to you
[Verse 5]
We were alone and I was singin' this song to you
We were alone and I was singin' this song, hmm, singin' this song to you
