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

Once a page is read

All but life is dead

That is my belief



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 ...
