Lyrics
All of my life All of my life been waiting on you Swallow my pride Night after night Ignoring every other thing That isn't bowing to your holy scepter Kiss your finger Can you bless me with music music I give it all to music music I'm dreaming of the muses muses But you're the only one That I sing for Reaching out out the car door For you for you I'll only ever sing for you In every note in every tune I'm only ever I'm only ever I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you For you for you Ah Music music We're making love and music music I'm dreaming and I'm lucid lucid And you're the one that I fly with Soaring in the sky with you with you I'll only ever sing for you In every note in every tune I'm only ever I'm only ever I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you I'm only ever singing for you For you for you for you for you I'm only ever singing for you All of my life all of my life For you for you All of my life all of my life For you for you

Track five on I, out ahead of the LP as a single. On a record where I is a moving coordinate around someone else, this is the vow: a working musician's all of my life been waiting on you, where even the dream of muses gets replaced. The job description rewrites itself, from singing about u to singing for u.
Not the grief of see you again?, not the distance of chasing the sunset. This is the present-tense yes.
