Amy Winehouse - 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 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 can't you see
There's no one more important to me
So darlin', won'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, well baby I was hiding
But now I'm so much better with my words coming 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 my life
Cause you the boy next door and a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember [x5]
When we were together
And I was singing this song for you

We were alone and
I was singing this song for you

  17. S.... G....

    Am I the only one who feels like she is not really singing this song but she is more like moaning? I love Amy and this song breaks my heart because it feels like she was dying singing it...

    S.... G....

    Suzie Grenier according to Salaam she was on the couch just playing this and crying and he happened to be recording the audio

    Потрясающая , неповторимая , волшебная , космическая женщина, красавица, твой голос лечит мою душу , и дает надежду на будущее, твоя истерзанная любовью душа дала миру столько песен, что за большую жизнь невозможно спеть и написать! Я кланяюсь тебе, дорогая , я люблю тебя, ты-рядом , ты со мной! У меня тоже болит душа, но с тобой мне легче!

    Many will disagree but Amy's has one of the greatest voice the earth has ever graced. She lies among the top 5 best voices for me. Its not only about range, belting, hitting high notes (which she could and did) but it's also about personality, texture, tone, she was so different.
    What a loss, it's so sad

    D.... k....

    So much talent gone too soon

  23. m.... ....

    the drums are too loud on all the songs on this album. 😔

  24. B.... A....

    Probably one of the worst version of this song ..... as well in terms of interpretation and emotion as in terms of musical interest.

  25. S.... G....

    happy birthday Amy ☁️

  26. f.... ....

    Happy Birthday sweet #Amy, on your 36th b'day today, rest easy girl, your music still lives on....🖤💖🎶🙏🏽🎂 🥂 14/09/19

    I've been so many places in my life and time

    When we were together
    And I was singing this song for you

    We were alone and
    I was singing this song for you
    Singing this song for you
    Singing this song

    We were alone
    And I was singing this song...
    For... you

    It’s been good for me I’m alive 1000,000people watching

  29. A.... W....

    Amy was such a gifted vocalist who was able to sing with an extreme amount of emotion that I can’t get through this song with dry eyes ! because I cry from the beginning till the very last lyric sung 😥

  30. D.... V....

    eu amo tanto essa versão 💛

  31. D.... 5....

    The seminal example of the music "business" a cautionary tale. The fresh faced slightly chubby beautiful girl that played her guitar while singing to two record company execs, to the alcoholic, addict being carried unconscious onto a plane before stumbling on some stage being booed, is night and day. It did not take long either. So truly truly sad that a girl who did not want to be a pop star ended up the biggest star. Gone too soon. Love the singing voice of Amy Winehouse. Not enough music left behind.

    Lordddd!!! And as in lord I refer to Amy!!!♥️ she can make any soul feel that beautiful voice!! Goddess truly ✨

    M.... H....

    It's divine

  34. k.... t....

    the last part in the minute 4:10 there a voice, but i dont know what she says 😫

    k.... t....

    "You know what Donny Hathaway
    You know who I see Donny Hathaway as like um my Carleen Anderson
    Like um Marvin Gaye like great, but
    Donny Hathaway, like
    He couldn't contain himself. He had something in him, you know."

  35. k.... t....

    4:10 what she says?

  36. N.... D....

    Cannot half understand the words ..

  37. C.... G....

    Melhor cantora do mundo

  38. r.... ....

    sounds drunk or stones as usual... what a waste of talent

  39. B.... O....

    LOVE  YOU AMY ...  I PRAY  FOR  YOUR SOUL EVER  AND  FOREVER  !!!
    GOD  KNOWS  THAT !BASO  OLIVEIRA

  40. N.... H....

    If yall Ever notice
    EveryBody who
    Sung this song
    Is Gone..Whitney,Amy
    Donny

    N.... H....

    Beyoncé is still alive though

    N.... H....

    Micheal Bublé is still alive too

    N.... H....

    Mick Hucknall too from the band Simply Red

    N.... H....

    @nofirstname nolastname i love b but for me her version was unnecessary. I can't explain it but it didn't have the sad melancholic feeling this song requires. No diss to her but i couldn't feel pain like with donny or amy nor did i get genuis delivery like Whitney or humble plee like Karen or Leon. She sounded lovely tho and but her passion into.

    N.... H....

    Come Agyn I couldn’t agree more.

  41. p.... ....

    I like Amy but I'm not feeling this rendition sadly. I do love her Beatles cover though

  42. L.... G....

    Legal as referências da música In the rain a banda Dramática que aliás é um puta som

  43. P.... B....

    inexplicable.

  44. J.... T....

    like this song much!

  45. G.... L....

    Katharine the most beautiful Rendition of OVER the Rainbow i have ever heard .

  46. i.... ....

    Both of these songs were sang by Amy and Whitney near the end of their lives 😭❤️ Both icons and won’t be forgotten ever

  47. T.... R....

    This song isn’t original it’s a cover of Donny.

  48. J.... ....

    I know the words to this song, but i can't understand what she's singing.

  49. W.... V....

    Wowzers!!!

  50. C.... O....

    I love you in a place where there is no space or time..

  51. G.... G....

    Love you Amy, fly high ❤️❤️❤️🌍

  52. O.... ....

    Love listening to this back to back with karen carpenters version.

  53. T.... G....

    Each fan feels like she is in the room singing this to them right now..Love you Amy 🎤

  54. C.... O....

    Amy was not from this world. She had somefink in her, you know? Sublime x

  55. I.... A....

    Adoro amy não tem igual perfeita

  56. r.... ....

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T H A N K S !!!! R.I.P.

  57. P.... p....

    Amy and Christina's versions are fucking great and beautifull 🖤🖤🖤🖤

  58. I.... ....

    She also used the music from Issac Hayes at the end. Very interesting sung by many in America but Donny Hathaway had the Spirit of God in him and projected it into his lyrics, phrasing, delivery and heart felt soul. Amy finds a way to tap into that in her version but she felt his presence. Song written by Leon Russel.
    Carlean Anderson and I went to school together for music in LA. Yes, she could hit the high beautiful notes then and play piano!! RIP Donny and Amy and Leon!

  59. R.... S....

    R.I.P Amy ❤🤧

  60. N.... N....

    Man she had a hell of a voice... thrilling...
    Unforgettable...

  61. �.... �....

    Amy.....😥😥😥 08.02.2019.

  62. �.... �....

    Живи вечно Эми я тебя люблю

  63. F.... V....

    My angel ❤️

  64. D.... M....

    Then why did you walk away? Or did I only imagine that you intended to stay?

  65. R.... J....

    Masterpiece! She understood Donny. To make a cover of this song after Donny you really play with fire! But she was indeed a genius singer and musician. So young and same time so mature. Donny sang it in tearful, sweetheart aching plea to his beloved one; while Amy beautifully decided to not follow or copy him. HEr version is sharp, sweet and with a punch. She truly nailed it. Also, she felt Donny and statied correctly that Donny couldn't contain himself. Indeed, given his struggles with psychosis and episodes of being unwell that led to suicide, he indeed could not find peace inside his heart and mind. Poor Donny, given he was a black man, and the times when he lived, just like Nina Simone, forced to take antipsychotics, feeling ashamed of his difficulties. the oppression and lack of knowledge from the medical and psychiatric establishment then. Often, He did not stand a chance .

  66. m.... w....

    Sorry, Leon Russell owns this one Amy.....

  67. R.... R....

    Para mim vai ser sempre a melhor cantora do mundo! 😢💕

  68. G.... S....

    Soul touching <3

  69. T.... P....

    Essa música eu guardo numa caixinha dentro do meu coração. ❤️💔

  70. T.... A....

    Minha música preferida na voz de Amy.

  71. J.... F....

    Maybe this world waznt purr enough for her so, Heavens took her to a better place, where everything is as crystal as her being😍

  72. T.... M....

    She had a very turbulent life; sadness. I love her voice she has that sultry soulful sound. Sad that alcohol and drugs were her only escape aside from her tunes

  73. D.... M....

    This is unlistenable. She was obviously high on heroine when she recorded this.

    D.... M....

    No she wasnt, IN FACT SHE STOPED TAKING DRUGS SINCE 2008, its a really soulful song and she felt it,, needless to say u coudn't sing like her in a million years

  74. E.... a....

    💕te amo em um lugar onde não há espaço e tempo...🎶

  75. R.... S....

    200 people have covered it...Leon's version is still the standard. Amy's does it justice however!

  76. D.... ....

    miss u Amy :(

  77. B.... Y....

    And when my life is over,
    Remember...😢 I miss you Amy❤️

  78. J.... C....

    👍👍👍👍

  79. A.... ....

    Quelle version est la meilleure, c'est seulement une histoire de goût. Pour ma part j'adore les trois versions (originale/Hathaway/Winehouse), toutes dégagent quelque chose de fort dans leur interprétation, et c'est bien dommage de toujours vouloir comparer/faire un classement, apprécier suffit.

  80. w.... m....

    Que interpretação!
    E que voz incomparável ♡

  81. A.... V....

    Minha rainha eterna no meu coração te amoooooooo 😭❤👑❤😭

  82. Z.... ....

    Every song this girl sings just wrings with pure, raw soulful emotion that just the very few GREAT ones bring to us in song

  83. L.... B....

    Love you forever.

  84. L.... B....

    My soul hits like it. Thanks Amy. Love ya .

  85. A.... K....

    7 years you left us alone.... But we still think of you..... On Matter Space or Time...our love for you still lives

  86. A.... ....

    We miss you Amy! Wish you were here still doing amazing music

  87. F.... A....

    my Queen

  88. F.... A....

    Miss her voice

  92. B.... J....

    Hathaway amy rip one love 😇 i like the dmx bizzy bonne version 2 .

  93. A.... M....

    Eu estive em tantos lugares na minha vida,
    Eu tenho cantado muitas músicas, tenho feito algumas rimas ruins.
    Tenho agido fora de mim,
    Com 10 mil pessoas assistindo,
    Mas estamos sozinhos agora e estou cantando essa canção para você.

    Eu sei que sua imagem de mim é o que espero que seja,
    Eu te tratei indelicadamente mas você não vê.
    Não há ninguém mais importante para mim
    Então querido, você não pode, por favor, ver através de mim?
    Porque nós estamos sozinhos agora e estou cantando essa canção para você.

    Você me ensinou segredos preciosos da verdade sem esperar nada.
    Você veio de frente, bem querido, eu estava me escondendo
    Mas agora estou muito melhor colocando essas palavras juntas.
    Ouça a melodia porque meu amor está lá... escondendo.

    Eu te amo em um lugar onde não há espaço ou tempo
    Eu te amo para minha vida toda
    Porque você é o menino da porta em frente, um amigo meu
    E quando minha vida acabar
    Lembre-se [x5]
    Quando estávamos juntos,
    E eu estava cantando essa canção... para você

    Nós estávamos sozinhos e
    Eu estava cantando essa canção para você
    Cantando essa canção para você
    Cantando essa canção

    Nós estávamos sozinhos
    E eu estava cantando essa canção...
    Para... você...

  94. p.... P....

    Thanks for your Song,Amy RIP and Thanks also for your visit of this planet...
