And I Love You So

And I love you so
The people ask me how,
How I’ve lived 'til 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 followed 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
Instrumental
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 onely 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 I love you so
The people ask me how
How I’ve lived 'til now
I tell them I don’t know
