Her No. 5 Love Song: A Song For You
Songwriter: 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 rhyme.
I've acted out my love in 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 hope to be.
I've treated you unkindly, but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me.
Darlin' can't you please see through me.
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you.

You taught me precious secrets of a truth, witholding nothing.
You came out in front, and I was hiding.
But now I'm so much better,
And if my words don't come together,
Listen to the melody 'cause my love's in there hiding.

I love you in a place where there's no space and time.
I love you for my life. You are a friend of mine.
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together.
We were alone, and I was singing this song to you.

But I love you in a place where there's no space and time.
I love you for my life. You are a friend of mine.
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together.
We were alone and I was singing this song for you.
We were alone and I was singing this song for you.
We were alone and I was singing my song, singing this song for you.
