I Don’t Know How to Love Him (from “Jesus Christ Superstar”) Songtext
von Elaine Paige

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.
