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

Is hope that you will hear me sing
'Cause this one's for you
This one's for you wherever you are
To say that nothing's been the same since we've been apart, oh
This one's for all the love we once knew
Like everything else I have
This one's for you
