Lyrics

[00:01.20] I've been so many places in my life and time
[00:07.43] I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
[00:14.13] I've acted out my love in stages
[00:18.66] With ten thousand people watching
[00:23.04] But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
[03:44.05][02:09.63][01:34.41][01:00.20][00:30.02]
[00:31.36] I know your image of me is what I hope to be
[00:38.94] I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
[00:46.01] There's no one more important to me
[00:49.52] Darlin' can't you please see through me
[00:54.10] Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
[03:12.05][01:03.07] You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
[03:20.45][01:10.75] You came out in front and I was hiding
[03:26.48][01:17.74] But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
[03:34.17][01:25.51] Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
[03:47.04][01:38.31] I love you in a place where there's no space or time
[03:54.29][01:45.84] I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
[04:02.22][01:53.83] And when my life is over
[04:06.14][01:57.65] Remember when we were together
[04:18.59][04:10.65][02:01.40] We were alone and I was singing this song for you
