But I sing of things I miss and things that used to be
This one's for all the love we once knew
And I sing for you, I sing for you
This one's for you wherever you are
And I sing it every night, and I fight to hide the tears
To say the things I should have said, things that you should know
Like everything else I have, this one's for you, oh
This one's for you wherever I go
Since we've been apart, this one's for all the love we once knew
I've got it all, it seems, for all it means to me
And I wonder every night if you might just miss me too
Is hope that you will hear me sing, 'cause this one's for you, oh
This one's to say that all I can do
'Cause this one's for you, this one's for you
To say that nothing's been the same since we've been apart
But I sing it every night and I fight to keep it in
'Cause this one's for you, this one's for you
This one's for you wherever you are
To say that nothing's been the same
But this one's so real for me, that I'm the one who cries
I've done a hundred songs, from fantasies to lies
