And I Love You So

And I Love You So
Don McLean

And I love you so
The people ask me how
How Ive lived till now
I tell them I dont know
I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand
And yes I know how lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night wont set me free
But I dont let the evening get me down
Now that youre around me
And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
Im happy that you do
The book of life is brief
And once a page is read
All but love is dead
That is my believe
And yes I know how loveless life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night wont set me free
And I dont let the evening bring me down
Now that youre around me
And I love you so
The people ask me how
How Ive lived till now
I tell them...I dont know
