I Love Him... Like a Woman Loves a Man

Lyrics

[ROSABELLA] I love him I love him And he treats me like a baby He doesn't seem to understand I love him And he treats me like a kid [CLEO] I know how it is Don't tell me, I know how it is! All that modesty and shyness at the start Kind of worked their way into your little heart [ROSABELLA, spoken] He doesn't act like we're married or anything. He's my husband, isn't he? [CLEO] I know how it is! Don't tell me, I know how it is! All those bashful ways that seemed so very right They turned out to be the things you've gotta fight [ROSABELLA] I love him Yеs, I love the way he looks and smеlls and feels [CLEO] Don't tell me, kid Tell him Tell him exactly how! And like they say in a musical comedy (spoken) Here he comes now! [DOC, spoken] Take it easy now. You're doin' fine. Soon you'll be walkin' good as new.  [TONY, spoken] Ah, what's-a use to walk? [DOC, spoken] Now easy, Tony. Don't give up. You're doin' fine.  [TONY, spoken] Ah, lemme sit down. What's-a use to walk? I ain't going no place. Hey, Rosabella, what's-a matter? You look at me like-a you... [ROSABELLA] I love you, I love you [TONY, spoken] That's-a nice.  [ROSABELLA] And you treat me like a baby You just don't seem to understand [TONY, spoken] What, Rosabella, what? [ROSABELLA] Like a woman loves a man That's how I love you [TONY] Rosabella, nunja say what you mean [ROSABELLA] Like a woman needs a man Darling, I need you [TONY, spoken] Ma, I'm old enough to be you papa.  [ROSABELLA] I'm no baby I know what I want I want holding you very close to me Just as close to me as I possibly can [TONY] Rosabella! [ROSABELLA] Not like a child But like a woman holds a man That's how I'll hold you Wouldn't blame you if you ran Now that I've told you [TONY, spoken] Carissima [ROSABELLA] I'm no baby I know what I know And I know it's my plan Just to love you Like a woman loves a wonderful man [TONY] Rosabella, Rosabella!
