I Don't Know How To Love Him

Jesus Christ Superstar

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



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
