Jesus Christ Superstar lyrics : "I Don't Know How to Love Him"

[Mary Magdalene:]
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.

[Instrumental break.]


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.
