Lyrics When I Love, I Love - Carmen Miranda

When I Love, I Love

Oh, when I love, I love
There’s no two ways about it
Yes, when I love, I love
I cannot live without it
Oh, when I fall, I fall
And you should never doubt it
If my lips say no to you
They’re only telling lies
Look at me and you will see
A Si, si in my eyes
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
That’s how my heart goes when I am kissed
I’m so excited
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
You have oomph and oomph I can’t resist
Oh, when I meet a man
And he’s nice looking
I smile at him and say
Hey, what’s cooking?
And when he holds me tight
And puts his cheek to mine
I feel so terrific
So colossal, so divine
I feel like Mickey Mouse
Was running up and down my spine
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
I’m completely overcome
Bum-tee-dum-pum, when I love, I love
Oh, when I love, I love
It is no imitation
And when I kiss, I kiss
With such anticipation
And when I coo, I coo
But I need coo-operation
If I say, Stop, please go away
And I am acting cool
If you stop and go away
Then you are just a fool
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
Something in me sings when I’m caressed
Mamãe eu quero
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
When I give, I always give my best
Oh, when I meet a man
And he’s nice looking
I smile at him and say
Hey, what’s cooking?
And when he holds me tight
And puts his cheek to mine
I feel so terrific
So colossal, so divine
I feel like Mickey Mouse
Was running up and down my spine
Bum-tee-dum-pum pum-pum-pum
I’m completely overcome
Bum-tee-dum-pum, when I love, I love
