    This is one lovely song. You can always tell the quality of a good song by how many artists want to cover it..... Perry Como...Frank Sinatra... Elvis Presley.... [-- Who?] The cream of the crop.....

    If this doesn't get to you after just losing Nanci, you're not human. Don McLean is one of this country's best lyricists. He is to his genre of music what Joyce was to literature. RIP Nanci.

    This is beautiful beyond words. I didn't even know Don & Nanci had performed any duets together. But was reading on-line of different artist's tributes to Nanci Griffith after she passed away on August 13, 2021.
    Don McClean's was one of them and he mentioned about two duets he had done with Nanci. So found my way here to listen. Just blown away by their duet. RIP, Nanci Griffith.

      I didn’t know who Nanci Griffith was, until I heard the news from the BBC about her death.
      She did ‘Folk and Country’? That sounds great!!
      Since then I looked up Nanci, and have enjoyed her music so much. ❤
      Edit: I love Don McLean too! I have a ticket to see him in Sydney in April ❤
      The last time he was here, he had a cold, and couldn’t sing so he just spoke the lyrics 😥

    And I love you so
    The people ask me how
    How I've lived 'til now
    I tell them, "I don't know"
    [Verse 2]
    I guess they understand
    How lonely life has been
    But life began again
    The day you took my hand
    [Chorus]
    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
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Verse 3]
    And you love me, too
    Your thoughts are just for me
    You set my spirit free
    I'm happy that you do
    [Verse 4]
    The book of life is brief
    And once a page is read
    All but love is dead
    That is my belief
    [Chorus]
    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
    [Verse 1]
    And I love you so
    The people ask me how
    How I've lived 'til now
    I tell them, "I don't know"

    The Song "AND I LOVE YOU SO" by Don Mclean, (partial verse)... "The Book of Life is BRIEF, and once a PAGE is READ, all but LIFE is DEAD, that is my belief."... I guess there is some TRUTH about this Song based on the level of "Human Experiences," otherwise Don Mclean will not even write it down...
    Remember when you were just dating, the ADRENALINE of SEXUAL DESIRE and ATTRACTION was so HIGH, you could not get enough with each other, but the moment you got married and have a family (Children)... the Sexual Desire and Attraction NATURALLY start to fade away, even if you love, trust, honor more your spouse today than before... Is this a Natural Phenomenon?
