Lyrics
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 love on stages
With millions of people watching me
Now we're alone and I'm singin' this song to you
I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life, 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 to you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hidin', hiding
But now I'm so much better
If my words don't come together
Listen to the melody because my love is in there hiding
I know your image of me is not what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly baby, oh, can't you see?
There's no one more important to me
Please, can't you see through me?
Now we're alone and I'm singin' this song to you
Now we're alone and I'm singin' this song to you
Now we're alone and I'm singin' this song, I'm singin' it to you
Yes I am, I'm singin' to you, baby
Singin' to you, baby, only you baby
Oh yeah, I'm singin' this song for you
