For You Songtext
von Barenaked Ladies

I have set aside everything I love
I have saved everything else for you
I cannot decide what this doubt′s made of
Though I've thought over it through and through

In a book in a box high upon a shelf
In a locked and gaurded vault
Are the things I keep only for myself
It′s your fate but it's not your fault

And for every useless reason I know
There's reason not to care
If I hide myself wherever I go
Am I ever really there?


There is nowhere else I would rather be
But I just can′t be right here
An enigma wrapped in a mystery
Or a fool consumed by fear

And for every useless reason I know
There′s reason not to care
If I hide myself wherever I go
Am I ever really there?

I will give you all I could ever give
Though it's less than you will need
Could you just forget if you can′t forgive
All the things I cannot concede?

And for every useless reason I know
There's reason not to care
If I hide myself wherever I go
Am I ever really there?
