[Lyric] A Song For You (Merry Clayton)

[Verse 1]
I've been so many places in my life and times
Sung a lot of songs, I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my love on stages with ten thousand 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 hope to be
I've treated you unkindly, baby, can't you see?
There's no one more important to me
Baby, can't you see through me?
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you

[Bridge]
You taught me precious secrets of a true love withholding nothing
You came out in front when I was hiding
Now I'm so much better and if my words, they don't come together
Just listen to the melody 'cause my love is in there hiding

[Verse 3]
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you, love you, love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over, remember remember remember
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
[Outro]
Yes I was now
We were alone, ain't nobody was there
And I was singing this song to you
I even got in your ears, baby, and I whispered
I'm singing this song to you
I kept on singing, I couldn't stop now
'Cause I was singing this song to you
I acted out my love on stages
Singing this song to you
