I've been so many places in my life and time, I've sung lots 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 for you; 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 we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you; you taught me precious secrets of the truth with holding 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 is in there hiding; I love you in a place where there's no space or time, I love you for, in 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.
