Tekst piosenki 'A Song For You' wykonawcy Carpenters

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot 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 darlin' can't you see?
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me?
We were 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 and 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

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
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
