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 watching
But we're alone now
And I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me
Is what I hoped 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 singing my song for you
You taught me precious secrets
Of a truth with holding nothing
You came out in front when I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
So if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
'Cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place
Where there's 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 that 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
