Love this voice…
Donny Hathaway.
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 in stages
With 10,000 people watching
But we’re alone now and I’m singing this song to you
I know your image of me is what I hoped to be
I treated you unkindly
And 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 to you
You taught me precious secrets
Of a true love , Withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
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
(Piano Break)
I love you in a place where there’s no space or time
I love you for my life
You’re 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

he must have been really hurt by her hope i never feel that way he really loved her so so so much
This music moves my soul. I can feel his pain through the undertone of his voice. Its my favorite lovesong of all time.
im crazy abt it…
Someone walked out of my life that I really care about and I waited to tell him after he left me that I loved him. So to let him know how much he really means to me, I sent him this song. I hope he really listens to the lyrics and he has a change of heart about us and he gives us another chance.
wow super STÜCK
First time to hear this.
I have been brought to tears.
Wow.

NO male vocalist comes even close! He´s in a league of his own…The most underrated artist in all aspects.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time i can listen to this over and over again. I can feel his pain in the song and he pours his entire mind, body and soul into this song. I echoes through out your entire body….JUST AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
this song is beautiful..i heard it on so you think you can dance and i fell in love with it
I remember reading an autobiography on Donny.
There was a picture of him at a rehersal,he was at the piano,on the top of the piano there was a book about “suicide” There were rumors of his depression,and unhappiness
Like many other talented artists,all the fame,success,money could not bring happiness!
His daughter pronunced”Layla” Hathaway,is a talented singer.His duets with Roberta Flack,and at Christmas time his”This Christams”, will live 4ever.RIP
Donny,Gone,Still loved, Never 4 gotten,

I wish he and Stevie had dueted…my two fav singers of all time by far!!
