i love you

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 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 life is dead, that is my belief

(lyric taken from song titled And I Love You So, sung by Perry Como)
