[Verse 1] I know some tricks, he's good at trade Isn't it strange how pedantic what we call romantic? I make him feel strong, he makes me feel seen What do we owe to the ether? What are we but creatures? He thinks I'm a fraud, suspects I'm a cheat He wants me guilty: but he wants me! Then you start to haunt me [Chorus] I don't know how to love a man a little I don't know how to make my feelings small If I loved him once, that love remains a riddle 'Cause I don't know how to love a man a little [Verse 2] I thought he was dead, under the door And I believed in the Other; the Squandering Lover I crouched on the floor, beside the bed And for the first time, I trusted It was the last day I lusted... But he was alive: how I wished he were dead! Then he'd be safe from my crushing Dispirited touching [Chorus] I don't know how to love a man a little I don't know how to make my feelings small If I loved him once, that love remains a riddle 'Cause I don't know how to love a man a little And I don't know how to think in just one color To separate and designate the wheel Don't look to me if you seek the patient lover 'Cause I don't know how to think in just one color [Verse 3] I wanted them all, I wanted them each Every man’s eye upon me - then you pressed in on me If you are love, if you are good, teach me to behave as I should Hang me to bleed on the dry wood What shall I say? What can I do? All that I am is known by You Grant him peace, please, would You [Bridge] I cannot love just a vapor You do not love only saints I cannot love just a vapor You do not love only saints You do not love only saints Only saints, only saints [Chorus] I don't know how to love a man a little I don't know how to make my feelings small If I loved him once, that love remains a riddle 'Cause I don't know how to love a man a little And I don't know how to speak in just one color To separate and designate the wheel Don't look to me if you seek a patient lover 'Cause I don't know how to speak in just one color I don't know how to love a man a little I don't know how to make my feelings small If I loved him once, that love remains a riddle 'Cause I don't know how to love a man a little
