A Song For You (with Leon Russell and Ray Charles) Songtext
von Willie Nelson

Well, I′ve been a lot of places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs and I′ve made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watchin'
Now we′re alone and I am singin′ my song for you

And I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darling can′t you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling can′t you please see through me
'Cause now we′re alone and I am singing my song for you

Well,you taught me precious secrets of a truth withholding nothin'
You came out in front but I was hiding

But now I'm so much better and if my words don′t come together
Just listen to the melody,for my love is in there hiding


And I love you in a place where there′s no space or 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 my song for you

You taught me precious secrets
Of a truth withholding nothing
You came out in front but I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don′t come together
Listen to the melody,for my love is in there hiding

And 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 when we were together

We were alone and I was singing my song for you
We were alone and I was singing my song for you
