Song information
Artist: Harry Chapin Album: Short Stories
Lyrics
Leon wrote a song for his special girl And elton and bernie did too! But you've been mine for such a long time Baby it's my turn to write one for you And this is the best that this poor boy can do
You see I don't know what to tell you babe I can't say thanks a lot For I know I really owe you For almost everything I've got You were with me in the good times And when things were going bad You were with me when your love Was the only thing I had Yes I have been a song man For a long long time Coming up with some melodies Trying to find some words that rhyme And while I have been singing You've been there to see me through And so I think it's long past time I wrote this song for you
You know I wanted to keep it simple And not make it too long But I had hoped to make it beautiful For after all it is your song Yes you know how I love my music It is my life and livelihood But of all that's happened to me babe You are everything that's good And I have been a song man For such a long long time Coming up with melodies Trying to find some words that rhyme While I have been singing You've been there to see me through So I think it's long past time I wrote this song for you
