The Temptations - A Song for You Lyrics

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 life on stages with ten thousand people watching
But we're alone, yeah, 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 many times but baby can't you see
There's no one more important to me, baby, baby, can't you see through me
We're all alone now and I'm singing this song for you

You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front when I was hiding
And now I'm so much better, and if my words they don't come together
Listen to the melody, 'cause my love ooh baby
'Cause my love, 'cause my love is in there, is in there hiding

I loved you in a place where there's no space or time
I loved you for my life you became a friend of mine
And when my life is all over, remember when we were together
We were alone, baby, and I was singing this song for you
For only you, only you

I was singing my song for nobody but you
