For You - Nick Harper

I was the white horse rider, riding in the song for you,

On the point of the divider plotting a course for you,

You know I love you to bits, I ride through the cyclone for you,

Just to get to put my lips on the microphone for you,

I play guitar and I sing,

I never said I said anything,

But when I said what I said I could say it for you.

I was the insider sending out a message for you

I had enigma deciphered, an endless one liner for you

But now the code lies broken and it’s all blown open for you

And when the ride is done you will know that I have come for you,

I play guitar and I sing,

I never said I said anything,

But when I said what I said I could say it for you,

When I played what I played I was playing for you.

And I always wanted to write for you,

It never ever mattered what I said,

All the words in the world and everything else I left unsaid

Would only take their true form in your head,

I play guitar and I sing,

I never said I said anything,

But when I said what I said I could say it for you,

When I played what I played I was playing for you,

So every song I ever sang I sang for you,

And the last song I ever sing will be for you,

And the very last words that I ever sing will be for you.
