Barry Manilow - This One's For You (Demo) Lyrics

This one will never sell, they'll never understand
I don't even sing it well, I try, but I just can't
But I sing it every night, and I fight to keep it in
'Cause this one's for you, this one's for you

I've done a hundred songs, from fantasies to lies
But this one's so real for me that I'm the one that cries
And I sing it every night, and I fight to hide the tears
'Cause this one's for you, this one's for you

This one's for you wherever you are
To say that nothings been the same
Since we've been apart

To say that I'm sorry in case you are too
Like everything else I have
This one's for you, oh

I've got it all, it seems, for all it means to me
But I sing of things I miss and things that used to be
And I wonder every night if you might just miss me too
And I sing for you, I sing for you

This one's for you wherever you go
To say the things I should have said
And things that you should know

You said not to call so all I can do
Is hope that you will hear me sing
That this one's for you

This one's for you wherever you are
To say that nothings been the same
Since we've been apart
