A Song For You Lyrics by Natalie Cole

A Song For You

Ive been so many places in my life and time

Ive sung a lot of songs and Ive made some bad climbs

Ive acted out my life in stages with ten thousand people watching

Oh, but were alone now and Im singing this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be, Ive treated you unkindly

Oh, but darling cant you see that, theres no one more important to me

Baby, baby, cant you see through me, cause were alone now

And Im singing this song to you, you taught me precious secrets

Of a true love withholding nothing, you came out in front

When I was hiding, yeah, yeah, but now its so much better

If my words dont quite come together, please listen to the melody

cause my love is in there somewhere hiding

I love you in a place where there is no space or time, I love you for my life

You are a friend of mine, and when my life is over

Remember, remember, remember when we were together

And we are alone now, and I was singing this song to you

We were alone, and I was singing, yeah singing

We were alone, and I was singing this song for you

Singing my song, Im singing my song for you

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
