This song takes me back a few years back, I was told to leave my parents house due to my excessive drug and alcohol use , I was so lost , lonely and broken. And I didn't even know it . I still had my job but lost the trust from my family and friends , and also pushed most people away. I found a shared accomodations in a city near to where I lived . I had a room and not a lot of possessions , the house had a lounge which had a t.v and RUclips on it . I spent most evenings sat on my own listening to music , drinking and using drugs sometimes. Until I heard this song , I heard it before but never listened to the lyrics. I felt such a connection with it and found myself playing it over and over again. I did this for weeks on end after worked on my days off, I meet some good people during this , and found myself slowly coming away from the madness of drug life. i also meet a girl who is now my close friends and has been for over a year . I focused myself on this song and it helped me in magical ways . This story has no actual end or anything just thought . I'd shared my thoughts .
Saw them in Montreal recently. I had always thought Baby what a big surprise was a romantic song. This one tops it. Beautiful lyrics and Peter Cetera's wonderful voice to go with it. I wish they had sung it at the concert. Thanks for posting.
sikorskiS55 Every now and then, Chicago performs this very SONG, during a live concert on the playlists of that particulars as performances. They and yet still will perform it, even today! Jeff Coffey of whom recently just replaced Jason Scheff in the band, recently performed this song as I ran across it here, on RUclips rather recently. As you know, Jason Scheff, whom HAD taken Peter Cetera's place, in Chicago as their then new and high tenor/bassist guitarist, would sing this. In fact, when my wife and I saw Chicago, performing at the very first and inaugural concert of the then brand new Ford amphitheater, here in Tampa Bay Area (Tampa), Florida, on July 27, 2004, Jason Scheff sang the lead on this SONG -which was on THEIR set playlists for that particular evenings concert performance...Earth, Wind & Fire, just so happened to be touring with Chicago that very particular of summertimes (this, having had what became, then & ever since thereafter, off & on, till PRESENTNESS OF DAYS -in fact, they're touring together, 'RIGHT NOW!' And THROUGH till the END of THIS MONTH, November of 2016! But, in the summertime of 2004, the two bands were on their very first of these 'TOGETHER' and THEIR NOW, revolving a theirs touring performances. My wife and I simply sat there, in UTTERLY of a jaw dropping amazement, completely and as it speechless. And during this performance of this song, we sat as stunned and watching, while interchangeably, the lead singer of Earth, Wind & Fire, Philip Bailey, along and with Jason Scheff, performed this SONG. And while both band's were onstage together, the entirety OF the twosomes and mixed bands, PLAYING together this SONG... I literally, couldn't STOP crying. FACT TO MATTERS BEING, neither was there a dry eye but as it were, or even anywhere round us! If you've never heard the sweet voice of Philip Bailey, ever before? Well, then you are one of whom is having but simply just only missed out, on and hearing, doubtlessly one of the best voices, ever...! If I can find a RUclips live performance of EW&F with Chicago, performing this song, I'll be sure to reposting the video of it and as here, too... 🌞
Such a beautiful song and video. I miss those NE fall days. Maybe even remember back to childhood 3 score years ago, jumping in the leaves. Can still sense the pleasant aroma of the leaves, and fluffy cushion around me, and being with friends and family. Can't jump into cacti! Nor prickly juniper branches. But probably nobody does it anymore because of the awful ticks that have invaded. Need Jesus to return and fix everything and bring world 🌎 peace 🙏 . Happy Father's day to all ❤❤🎉 And thanks Dad! And Poppops! Maybe you can see this in heaven? And thanks Babe for allowing me to be a dad, and for being the love of my life. And thanks, heavenly Father, for the gift of life and salvation through Jesus Christ your Son, our Saviour ✝️
Jesus the last time I heard this i 40 years ago and it feels like yesterday. 40 years in real life don't feel like what you do expect in your imagination when you are young. trust me on that one.
I don't know why I cried when I accidentally heard this song again after several years. Maybe because I've never experienced to be loved by a man this way.
This song sung my late husband for me early 80s.He died 1986 a Philippine marine to our country I miss you.espicially when I heard this song... I love you Chicago
All I can say is Chicago was extremely lucky to get Peter Cetera to be in their band all those years ago. That voice is amazing. The whole band was very talented but Peter is the voice of Chicago that made them Chicago.
The song I sang with my mom 11 days ago. She passed away yesterday. I'll go back here from time to time, to listen, to reminisce.. Still can't believe you're gone. We miss you so much.
I'm laying in bed beside the man i was praying, hoping, wishing and dreaming while listening to this song last 5 years ago.... its amazing! he is amazing!
34 years later with the love of my life...my angel I am this man who will stick with u thru thick and thin.. would do it all over again and love you and every moment
Both have different identity.. Arnel pineda will always be Arnel pineda.. Peter cetera will always be peter cetera.. Both are incredible singers but A SONG FOR YOU will always remains peter cetera's masterpiece...
I have to be honest. I've been a Chicago Fan since CTA (their 1st album) and today has been the first time I've really listen to this song. I even had to look in the web who was singing it when it starts. And lo and behold it's Peter Cetera! Never realized his vocal range till this time. What a beautiful song! Never heard it in the airwaves. Chicago performed in Puerto Rico in the 80's and at the beginning of the 00's and I was there. Greatest band ever!
This was the song my man used to sing to me. He left me for another girl. I know I dodged a bullet, but the pain still remains. It's been 8 years already. 😢
I wish Peter would include this is in current set list or even re-recorded this for one of his solo albums. Such an underrated gem on XIV, even though the album itself bombed, this song would've made it on the charts and should have. Beautiful key change too!
Remembering the Chichago group and wonderfull songs from my junior high school until now this song is still pleasant to listen to and beautiful to hear😀
It takes me there. For people it helped in times of trouble and loneliness He will be there. I am luckyto have of a husband who represents this beautiful,timeless song.🦋
Peter Cetera’s vocals are exquisite in this song…. I think he worked very hard to hit every note and it’s a great example of his (often times underrated) vocal range. Superb!
i remember this song when i was still a student in DAvao not sure if i was in hi skul or college that time . this was the hit song.till now ilove to hear this song . it brings back some good memories that i treasure for the rest of my life!!!

Peter cetera is true legend 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Been listening to and loving Chicago for 57 years. Saw them in concert about 6 months ago. Still fabulous.
Jesus the last time I heard this i 40 years ago and it feels like yesterday. 40 years in real life don't feel like what you do expect in your imagination when you are young. trust me on that one.
The best of Chicago song I really love ❤️
I don't know why I cried when I accidentally heard this song again after several years. Maybe because I've never experienced to be loved by a man this way.
This song sung my late husband for me early 80s.He died 1986 a Philippine marine to our country I miss you.espicially when I heard this song... I love you Chicago

i love this song for its simplicity and complexity - cetera made a magic in this song.
Absolutely true

All I can say is Chicago was extremely lucky to get Peter Cetera to be in their band all those years ago. That voice is amazing. The whole band was very talented but Peter is the voice of Chicago that made them Chicago.
Their new singer is real amazing as well. Just saw them in concert and it was the best show I've seen in many many years.
Peter Cetera has got a very amazing distinctive voice!
The song I sang with my mom 11 days ago. She passed away yesterday. I'll go back here from time to time, to listen, to reminisce.. Still can't believe you're gone. We miss you so much.

My husband's song for me😊
Peter Cetera is the only man that can sing this song at his best. His incredibly unique voice melts our hearts 🎶🎼🎤🎶🎙🎹🎸🎼
Your are most likely correct but how i would love to hear the amazing Arnel Pineda sing it, just once 😎. God bless
So am i... Peter cetera fanatic here..
Both have different identity.. Arnel pineda will always be Arnel pineda.. Peter cetera will always be peter cetera.. Both are incredible singers but A SONG FOR YOU will always remains peter cetera's masterpiece...
indeed
I have to be honest. I've been a Chicago Fan since CTA (their 1st album) and today has been the first time I've really listen to this song. I even had to look in the web who was singing it when it starts. And lo and behold it's Peter Cetera! Never realized his vocal range till this time.
