For You

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 high up on 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 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? 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? 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? 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? --- For You - Barenaked Ladies
