Lyrics

I don't know how to love him

I am uncertain about how to express love towards him.

What to do, how to move him?

I am unsure of the actions or words that would make him respond emotionally.

I've been changed, yes, really changed

I have undergone a significant transformation, a real change.

In these past few days, when I see myself

Recently, when I observe myself, I notice a considerable alteration.

I seem like someone else

My current state makes me feel like a different person.


I don't know how to take this

I am confused about how to interpret or respond to this situation.

I don't see why he moves me

I don't understand why his actions or presence affect me so deeply.

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

He is just a man, a human being, and I've had previous experiences with many men.

And I've had so many men before

I've been involved with numerous men in various ways before encountering him.

In very many ways, he's just one more

Despite the differences, he seems to be just another man in my life.


Should I bring him down?

Should I bring him down emotionally or lower his self-esteem?

Should I scream and shout?

Should I express my feelings intensely, possibly through anger or frustration?

Should I speak of love, let my feelings out?

Should I talk about love and reveal my emotions openly?

I never thought I'd come to this

I never anticipated finding myself in this situation.

What's it all about?

I am questioning the meaning and purpose of it all.


Don't you think it's rather funny

Isn't it ironic that I, who usually takes charge, am now in this vulnerable position?

That I should be in this position?

I find it amusing or strange that I am in this particular circumstance.

I'm the one who's always been running every show

I am typically the one in control, but he intimidates me.

He scares me so

His presence instills fear in me.


I never thought I'd come to this

Once again, I am surprised to find myself in this unexpected situation.

What's it all about?

I continue to question the purpose and meaning of it all.

What's it all about?

Reiterating the uncertainty and confusion about the situation.


Yet, if he said he loved me

If he were to express love towards me, I would feel lost and frightened.

I'd be lost, I'd be frightened

I wouldn't be able to handle it, emotionally or mentally.

I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope

I wouldn't be able to cope with the emotions that come with his love.

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

I would avoid the situation and distance myself.

I wouldn't want to know, he scares me so

I wouldn't want to know about his love because it scares me.

I want him so, I love him so

Despite the fear, I desire and love him intensely.
