"I Don't Know How to Love Him" is a song from the 1970 rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar written by Andrew Lloyd Webber (music) and Tim Rice (lyrics), a torch ballad sung by the character of Mary Magdalene
I don't know how to love him What to do, now to move him I've been changed yes really changed In these past few days when I see myself I see 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 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 Yes, 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
