Lyrics A Song for You - Live - Betty Wright

Ladies and gentlemen Kevin Kendrick's on piano
And we thank you, yeah

I've been so many places
In my life and times
I sung a lot of songs
And I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we are alone, yeah, yeah
And I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me
Is what I've hoped to be
I've treated you unkindly, many times
But, baby, can't you see?
There is no one more important to me
Baby, baby, can't you see through me?
We are alone, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I'm singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets
Of the true withholding nothing
You came out in front when I was hiding, oh yeah
Woah, and now, ooh, y'all
Oh, I'm so much better

And if my words they don't come together
Just listen to the melody, yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause my love, ooh baby
'Cause my love, yeah
'Cause my love, ooh, ooh
Aw, it's in the air

I love you in a place, mmm
Where there's no space or time
I love you for my life
You became a friend of mine
And when this tired life of mine is over
Remember when we were together, mmm, hmm

And We were alone, baby
And I was singing this song for you
For only you, only you
You
I was singin'
My song for nobody but
You
