I know this is the Country Music site but ol' Don is country as he features it a lot on his live shows if not on recordings. The question I have is about a song of his. Last Saturday on PBS there was a Don McLean concert with various guests of which one was Garth Brooks. On Garth's spot he did one on Don's songs which I am trying to get the lyrics to. I've tried his website and discography but I can't find a title which relates to the words I remember. The short chorus lyrics are something like: AND I WONDER IF YOU KNOW.....THAT I NEVER UNDERSTOOD.....THAT ALTHOUGH YOU SAID YOU'D GO....UNTIL YOU DID...I NEVER THOUGHT YOU WOULD.......Although I'm not the biggest Garth Fan in the world he did a great job on this song. Any help with the title would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Brad,
I appreciate the reply but it's a different song. Don sang Vincent himself. This one was a minor hit and not near as famous as Vincent or American Pie. Thanks again.

Jerry,
The song you're thinking of is on Don's first album, American Pie, and is entitled "Winterwood."

Thanks Hank, that's a big help. This is a beautiful song. I'll go back to the website and see if I can find it now.
