[Originally by Leon Russell]
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 love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
Now we're alone and I'm singing my song for you
I hoped your image of me is what I hoped it to be
I treated you unkind but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darlin' won't you see right through me
When we're alone and I am singing my song for you
You taught me precious secrets of a love witholding nothing
You came out front when I was hiding
Now I am so much better, 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, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Think of when we were together
When we were alone and I was singing my song for you
