Donny Hathaway A Song For You Lyrics

A Song For You 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 mad rhymes
I've acted out my life in
stages
With 10,000 people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing
this song to you

Verse 2:

I know your image of me is what I hoped
to be
I treated you unkindly
And darling can't you see
There's no one
more important to me
Baby can't you see through me
Cause we we're alone
now and I'm singing this song to you

Verse 3:

You taught me
precious secrets
Of a true love, you wanted nothing
You came out in front
and I was hiding
Now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come
together
Listen to the melody
Cuz my love is in there
hiding

(Piano Break)

Verse 4: (2x)

I love you in a place
where there's no space or time
I love you for my life
Your a friend of
mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We we're
alone and I was singing this song to you (repeat last line 2x)
