Ode to my new car (a variation of Don Maclean’s song).
And I love you so, the people might ask me how
How I’ve lived ’till now, I will tell them I don’t know
I guess they will understand, how lonely life has been
That life begins again the day I take you for a spin
And yes, I know how lonely life can be
The shadows followed me (in my old car) and I needed setting free
But I won’t let country lanes get me down
Now that you’re around me
And you’ll love me too, your fit is just for me
You set my spirit free, I’m happy that you do
Your book of life is brief (under ten?), the gas isn’t lead,
And the engine’s far from dead , that is my belief
And yes, I know how lonely life can be
The shadows (other cars) will follow me now my knight (Chris) has set me free
But I won’t let the traffic get me down
Now that you’re around me
(Or will be when I get home!) Want to see my new car?

And I Love You So (song)
“And I Love You So” is a popular song written by Don McLean and released on his 1970 debut album, Tapestry. The song has been recorded by many artists in the years since McLean’s original version, and it was a 1973 hit for singer Perry Como on his album of the same name, And I Love You So.
Como’s version of the song reached #29 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, the last of his many popular recordings to reach the Top 40. It also spent one week at #1 on the easy listening chart in 1973.[1] In Britain, the record reached #3 on the UK Singles Chart in 1973 on RCA Records and remained on the chart for 31 weeks (longer than any other of his hits in the UK).
It’s obviously giving you some “cars” for celebration!
