I know your image of me is what I hope to be,                      I 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,     |             |               |   |'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you.       |           |       |          You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding 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's in there hiding.[Bridge] | descending harmonic-minor cascade |  | |descending harmonic-minor cascade                         I love you in a place where there's no space and 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 this song to you. |  |  |   |   |    |[Verse]                         I love you in a place where there's no space and 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 this song to you.          |        |               |  |We were alone and I was singing this song to you.      |             |   |We were alone and I was singing my song.[Outro]Singing my songSinging my songSinging my songSinging my song
