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

that 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 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
