Leon Jackson - 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 rhymes
I've acted out my life 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've treated you unkindly
But Darling can't you see There's no one more important to me
Baby, can't you see through me, 'cause we're alone now
And I'm singing this song for you, you taught me precious secrets
Of a true love withholding nothing, you came out in front
When I was hiding,
But now am so much better
An if my words don't come 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 from my life
Your 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

I love you in a place where there's no space or time, I love you from my life
Your a friend of mine, and when my life is over
Remember,remember when we were together
We were alone, and I was singing this song to you

We were alone, and I was singing this song to you.
We were alone, and I was singing this song to you.

Leon Jackson A Song For You Comments
  1. D.... J....

    Great singing. But don't bother doing the song without the iconic piano beginning and middle. Without them (to true creatives) the song really looses its meaning. They are lyrics within themselves.

  2. s.... r....

    WICKED!

  3. s.... r....

    #AMAZING LEON JACKSON.

  4. s.... r....

    Eleven years ago today the 15 December 2018, #LEON JACKSON won X Factor. We the fans who are still playing his music, wish him love and we so hope to hear from him again soon. Please Leon, you do have an amazing voice. #KEEP GOING.

  5. s.... r....

    Leon Jackson sings this song as good as Donny Hathaway; for me to say that is praise indeed, for I love the way Donny Hathaway sings. #LEON JACKSON, come back!

    s.... r....

    As Leon Turns 30 Today , Lets Wish Leon A Happy 30th Birthday!

    s.... r....

    D.... C....

  12. N.... S....

    Love it <3

  13. S.... N....

    I love this song.....it is the best version which i know...your voice is exeptional...

  14. C.... P....

    amazing voice!!! good looking !!! congratulations !!

  15. c.... o....

    his voice is so sweet <3 i have always loved him but find it so hard to find a lot of his music and hes quite goodlukin too :) leons amazing. <3

  16. B.... ....

    Amen to everything positive that everyone else has said here. What a voice -- what talent -- what style, etc.... etc.... etc...... This song is a great match for his voice. He sings it so well. It's beautiful. I love it. Good job Leon. I wish you the very best in everything you do.

  17. c.... ....

    Leon you are brilliant!!! And sadly, so underrated it is criminal - your voice is the bees' knees, LOVE your album and hope you will have another one or more!!!

  18. T.... T....

    Fittie alert! He's amazing at singing.

  19. D.... P....

    fuck the yanks? Michael Buble is canadian...next time you decide to be an ignorant idiot at least use real facts or you end up looking like an ignorant idiot.

  20. F.... S....

    You´re absolutely right.

  21. S.... k....

    i love leon jackson (L)

  22. t.... ....

    Wow...he managed to sing a song that is full of emotion and power with absolutely no soul, conviction or energy. Sounds like Pat Boone trying to sing the blues.

  23. K.... S....

    @theawakener7 Comments like this make me smile. I hate how everyone's all "Buble is better than Leon" like hell is he, the only good thing about Michael Buble is that we got Leon Jackson because of him. Apart from that Buble is shit. He can't sing, well he can, but he's boring. He bored the life out of me when he came on X Factor. Leon has everything and Buble has nothing!

    Leon will come back (I think this year??) and show everyone what a true star he is.

  24. j.... b....

    JEEZ HE CAN SO SING WHAT AGREAT SOUND

  25. M.... ....

    Beautiful song, hes voice is... unbelivable...

    P.S. 1.48 - the best photo. <3

  26. K.... S....

    agreed. he's working on new music atm anyway

  27. K.... S....

    We still love him very much, his second single got to around number 3 and his album number 4 but that wasn't good enough for COWell. Leon's gone independant anyway and said being dropped was like a blessing in disguise.

  28. j.... s....

    OMG
    I LOVE LEON JACKSON
    soo much !!
    i always sing hissongs...
    he is AMSING Xx

  29. J.... ....

    love him. shame he lost his contract, bummer!

  30. D.... ....

    MIchael Buble sung this, too. I love leon though!! i love leon jackson!! <33

  31. L.... G....

    Beautiful!

  32. A.... M....

    One of the most beautiful voices ever..
    I love Leon...He is deep,sensitive,creative,cute..and very talented.

  33. R.... ....

    wer r u now

  34. K.... S....

    Leon said it was like a blessing in disguise. He's now gone independant and is writing new songs.

  35. A.... H....

    Leon,you won the pulic vote and you are a great talent....Your future is secure...Love the album...

  36. K.... S....

    I'm off to see Leon live next week and soo can't wait, the only downside with his career is he no longer has a record label, which really sucks...but hopefully he'll either go independant or get signed again.

  37. t.... l....

    I have no doubt about that. If you look to the comments you'll find that there are people from everywhwere, but we haven't the power of the Cowells and Walshs guys so we must keep on making the promotion as we can. Fingerprints , Stargazing , Ordinary Days and All in good times are also originals for Leon Jackson (I think).

  38. t.... l....

    I've posted some comentaries on Portugal Sony Bmg about this, because I can't understand why "Right Now " hasn't been sold out of UK. Misteries....Anyway , the song "Don't give up" was a bonus track of "don't call this love" single. All the other songs are his Xfactor performances . Leon also sings a version of Paolo Nuttini's "Rewind", you can watch it here on you tube.

  39. t.... l....

    In Spain, in Portugal etc.... Nobody knows leon jackson because he didn't have a promotion like he desearves (its a long story). But he has a fantastic album called "Right now" and it can be bougth from amazon (like I did)

  40. t.... w....

    His voice gives me goosebumps. Such an amazing talent, it would be such a shame if it went to waste.
    He needs a record company that will give him the support he deserves.

  41. J.... B....

    U are great i love u i do u seem so nicce well done to get this far .i reamber when u where on X factor

  42. d.... s....

    brilliant version

  43. j.... s....

  44. a.... ....

    @androsjlouca
    thanks
    @Dhalltx, listened to elliot's version
    Leon's version s much more richer in tone and raw. listen/play to leon and elliot yamin version at the same time. Leon voice s so distinctive. im listening again.

  45. V.... P....

    Soo passionated!

  46. a.... ....

    who s elliot yamin. sorry for asking. i just watched the xfactor series 4 (Leon)intensely but not the other series.

  47. D.... W....

    not better than elliot yamin. Get it straight

  48. a.... ....

    luv this guy. beautiful and smooth voice. buy his album to help boost his album sales. hope he will have a bright future. i just buy the album coz i'm buble fan but i must say that the album s brilliant.

  49. S.... D....

    Oh God! I'm in love with this guy <3
    he's so beautiful and his voice's amazing *

  50. k.... ....

    This is an OK version. I think Donnie Hataway sings it better though but this isnt bad just doesnt sound sincere.

  51. M.... M....

    on par with Elliot Yamin...not better

  52. A.... K....

    i love this guy so much, since me and my dad seen him audition for the x-factor we always said he was going to win and in my opinion he is the best singer to come off that show since it started. he is going to be big in the future!!!

  53. i.... ....

    gobsmacked!!!!!!!!! i love this song, never heard it sang so well

  54. i.... ....

    I have just bought his album and am totally amazed.....he sounds so much older than his 19 yrs. This song is one of his best, blew me away

  55. w.... ....

    Amasing!!!!

  56. c.... ....

    He's only 19 and can sing this song like this !!!! what will he be like in 5 years? Wow.

  57. h.... ....

    he's absolutely amazing!

  58. t.... ....

    Wow! Who thought he would be this good.

  59. l.... ....

    I obviously meant HEAR..too late at night :D

  60. l.... ....

    Its amazing! The album had me gobsmacked, literally..
    Thanks for uploading it for all to here

    xx

  61. T.... ....

    One of my all time favourite songs from the Carpenters - but Leon Jackson absolutely showcases his tremendous voice - thank god for talent shows when it finds something as special as this
