Barenaked Ladies - For You LYRICS

I have set aside everything I love

I have saved everything else for you

I cannot decide what this doubt's made of

Though I thought over it through and through



In a book in a box high upon a shelf

In a locked and guarded vault

Are the things I keep only for myself

It's your fate but it's not your fault



[CHORUS:]

And for every useless reason I know

There's a reason not to care

If I hide myself wherever I go

Am I ever really there?



There is nowhere else I would rather be,

but I can't just be right here

An enigma wrapped in a mystery,

or a fool consumed by fear



[CHORUS]



I will give you all I could ever give

Though it's less than you will need

Could you just forget, if you can't forgive

All the things I cannot concede



[CHORUS]
