A song for you

Versión de The Carpenters de la canción escrita por el cantante de rock Leon Russell en 1970 .

Letra

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 on stages

With ten thousand people watching

But we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you

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'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 and I was hiding

Now I'm so much better

And 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' re a friend of mine

And when my life is over

Remember when we were together
