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 moved me
 He's a man, he  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 feeling 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
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
