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
Cause we're 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 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 [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/amy_winehouse/a_song_for_you.html ]
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
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 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
Heartbreaking and emotional version of the classic made famous by Donny Hathaway, Amy's favourite artist. The song was recorded in one take, just Amy and her guitar, at her home during spring 2009 as she battled her demons. Produced by Salaam Remi.

Amy sounds so filled with emotion. It honestly makes me feel high when i listen to this but also filled with sorrow. She was amazing.

Most beautiful lyrics ever. Even if it is a cover amy did. She just interprets it so well i can even feel her love while singing.

It's like her dad said, amy was about "love". I too, truely believed she knew she was gonna die. She never wanted fame!!! She just wanted to roller skate around her ex hubby and sing a song to him. She told her singer friend "remi", that to be in love; meant you would have to be dead if you couldn't be with the love of your life... Wow... I would've loved to have met her. God has a place for you amy...

This song has been around for so many years. Almost every artist that sings the song is fantastic. I believe this song has different meaning for everyone.

This song speaks to me in so many ways. It makes me think of my deceased spouse, a closed friend and his wife that has terminal cancer, and a personal relationship from the past. You know, a relationship with such deep love that you still want to be with that person, the you never got over.

I cry my eyes out when i hear this song.. I loved amy dearly and my heart breaks for her. I truly miss her. She obviously was singing this with true emotion.. The sadness is so tangible. She gave her heart and soul to this person she is singing to.. Maybe at times things were less than perfect but in my opinion she still loved blake and of course her fans. Hope you are singing to the angels amy...
