Lyrics When I Love I Love - Carmen Miranda

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.
Mama eu quiero;
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
