    I'm 38 I survived a country of 3rd world and i've lived on the most violent state (Rio de Janeiro) without parents and money and now I am successfully on all sides of my life so I saw everything in this life. I met this Kodi Lee on the AGT audition in 2019 and I recognized an inspiration because I can do it from far. Now after watching Kodi Lee really happy when done the music, blind and autistic... when you see those idiots on instagram recording videos pretending spontaneous things you'll understand who is and what is a true inspiration.

    [Verse 1]
    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
    [Chorus]
    But we're alone now
    And I'm singing this song to you
    [Verse 2]
    I know your image of me
    Is what I hoped to be
    I treated you unkindly
    But darling, can't you see?
    There's no one more important to me
    Baby, can't you see through me?
    [Chorus]
    'Cause we're alone now
    And I'm singing this song to you
    [Bridge]
    You taught me precious secrets
    Of a true love while holding nothing
    You came out in front when I was hiding
    But now I'm so much better
    And if my words don't come together
    Listen to the melody
    'Cause my love is in there hiding
    [Verse 3]
    I love you in a place
    Where there's no space or time
    I love you for my life
    'Cause you' re a friend of mine
    And when my life is over
    Remember when we were together
    [Chorus]
    We were alone
    And I was singing this song to you
    [Verse 4]
    I love you in a place
    Where there's no space or time
    I love you for my life
    'Cuz you' re a friend of mine
    And when my life is over
    Remember when we were together
    [Chorus]
    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
    Singing this song to you

    As a person who has been singing for many years and who actually chose to sing this song for my partner at our wedding, this song is FUCKING hard to sing. You need POWER and CONTROL, and lots of it. It takes so much concentration and you think you got it but as soon as I went to practice this in front of other people, the shakes and trembles of stage fright I got made me lose all my practiced power and control. It is DAMN hard doing this, as the song says, "on stages with ten thousand people watching". (It feels like ten thousand even when it's 12-20, but for Kodi is actually IS something like ten thousand people). So damn, the courage he has to make those runs even with a trembling voice....I tip my hat off to you, Kodi. This is one of the best songs ever written, too.

      💯. It’s always been one of my absolute favorites, and I recognize how hard it is to sing. Thanks Leon Russell for the gift of this beautiful song.
