And I love you so.

The people ask me how,

How I've lived till now.

I tell them I don't 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 won't set me free.

But I don't let the evening get me down

Now that you're around me.

And you love me, too.

Your thoughts are just for me;

You set my spirit free.

I'm happy that you do.

The book of life is brief

And once a page is read,

All but love is dead.

That is my belief.

And, yes, I know how loveless life can be.

The shadows follow me, and the night won't set me free.

But I don't let the evening bring me down

Now that you're around me.

And I love you so.

The people ask me how,

How I've lived till now.

I tell them, "i don't know."
