I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
I made some bad rhymesI've acted out my life in stages
Ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now
I'm singing this song for youI know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly
But, darling, can't you see
There's no one more important to me?
Oh, baby, can't you, please, see through me?
'Cause we're alone now, and
I'm singing this song for youYou taught me precious secrets
Of the truth, withholding nothing
You came out in front, I was hiding
Oh, but now I'm so much better
If the words don't come together
Just listen to the melody
'Cause my love's in there hiding
Oh, oh
