A song for you...
9
"I've been so many places
In my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs
I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my love on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now
And I'm singing this song to you
I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly
But darling, can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling, 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 a 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 there, hiding
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
"But 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 for you
We were alone
And I was singing this song for you
We were alone
And I was singing my song
Singing this song for you." =]

"I love you in a place where there's no space and time" 😢❤
-
Some of the most beautiful words ever written.

MY wife of 30 years died 4 months ago and I ran across this and I'm crying now. Linda I'm singing this song for you through all space and time. You know you that were the best and only real friend of mine. And now that it's all over, my life will be forever lonely, and I will be forever only, crying and singing this song for you.
-
How many of us will ever be remembered like this...When my life is over...I was singing this song for you. Beautiful. Remakes are copies, he nailed it.
-
Everybody in the world has covered this, but nobody ever came close to Leon!! My wife loved this, and when I hear it, I'm still ripped to pieces.
-
Please be sure to give this man credit for writing this song everywhere you can.
-
My late husband and I worshipped this song. He loved Leon, as do I. This song wraps my heart around such deep loving sentiments -- "Remember when we were together, we were alone and I was singing this song for you... "
-
This man wrote some of the most beautiful songs out there; like this gem. Sorely missed Rest in peace Leon.😢❤.

Still crying in 2023 when I hear this beautiful song
-
I’ve always, always loved Leon Russell. The guy had so much heart and soul. I just saw Kodi Lee on AGT and I had to go to YouTube and listen to some Leon.
-
And when my life is over Remember when we were together We were alone And I was singing this song to you
-
kodi lee from AGT brought me here.its music like these that make me fall in love with R&B even more.THANK U KODI LEE!!!
-
"and when my life is over. Remember when we were together. We were alone and I was singing this song for you" - A fitting epitaph on Leon's tombstone.
-
If you are here because of Kodi Lee’s unbelievable performance, please turn your friends on to this tune and listen to more Leon. He really was a treasure
-
“I love you in a place where there’s no space and time..” Ive never heard of a love described like this. I felt it once.
-
There will always be room in my heart for Mr. Russell.
-
he was so undervalued. What a song....
-
His Voice, Piano, & French Horn. Just 3 Items to Create, One of the most Powerful songs ever recorded. I still feel the same way as when I first heard it 50+ years ago. Pure Awe
-
A lot of performers have done covers of this song - many times these singers have had better voices and great orchestration. And yet, in my heart of hearts, I feel that nobody has touched the depth and eloquence of Leon Russell.
