Rosemary Clooney (May 23, 1928 – June 29, 2002) was an American singer and actress. She came to prominence in the early 1950s with the novelty hit "Come On-a My House" written by William Saroyan and his cousin Ross Bagdasarian (better known as David Seville, the father figure of Alvin and the Chipmunks), which was followed by other pop numbers such as "Botch-a-Me" (a cover version of the Italian song Ba-Ba-Baciami Piccina by Alberto Rabagliati), "Mambo Italiano", "Tenderly", "Half as Much", "Hey There" and "This Ole House", although she had success as a jazz vocalist.

I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs and I've made some bad crimes
I've acted out my life in stages, with ten thousand people watching
Oh, but we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you

I know your image of me is what I hope to be, I've treated you unkindly
Oh, but darling can't you see that, there's no one more important to me
Baby, 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 when I was hiding, yeah, yeah
But now, it's so much better if my words don't quite come together
Please listen to the melody 'cause my love is in there somewhere hiding

I love you in a place where there is no space or time, I love you for my life
You are a friend of mine and when my life is over
Remember, remember, remember when we were together
And we are alone now and I was singing this song to you

We were alone and I was singing, yeah, singing
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
Singing my song, I'm singing my song for you
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
