I Don't Know How To Love Him

I don't know how to love him,

what to do, how to move him.

I've been changed, yes, really changed.

In these past few days when I've seen myself

I seem like someone else.

I don't know how to take this

I don't see why he moves me.

He's a man, he's just a man.

And I've had so many men before

in very many ways:

he's just one more

Should I bring him down? Should I scream and shout?

Should I speak of love - let my feelings out?

I never thought I'd come to this - what's it all about?

Don't you think it's rather funny

I should be in this position?

I'm the one who's always been

so calm, so cool, no lover's fool

running every show

he scares me so.

I never thought I'd come to this - what's it all about

Yet, if he said he loved me

I'd be lost, I'd be frightened.

I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope.

I'd turn my head, I'd back away,

I wouldn't want to know -

he scares me so.

I want him so.

I love him so.
