For You - Barenaked Ladies, The Persuasions

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’ve thought over it through and through

In a book in a box up on a shelf

In a locked and guarded vault

Are the things I keep only for myself

Its your fate, but it’s not your fault

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 I would rather be

But I can’t just be right here

An enigma wrapped in a mystery

Or a fool consumed by fear?

I will give you all I could ever give

Though it’s less than you’ll need

Could you just forget if you can’t forgive

All the things I cannot concede?
