Текст песни A Boy Like That & I Have a Love - Leonard Bernstein

ANITA (spoken)
And you still don′t know: Tony is one of them!

(Sung)
A boy like that who'd kill your brother
Forget that boy and find another
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind!

A boy like that will give you sorrow
You′ll meet another boy tomorrow
One of your own kind
Stick to your own kind!

A boy who kills cannot love
A boy who kills has no heart
And he's the boy who gets your love
And gets your heart -
Very smart, Maria, very smart!

A boy like that wants one thing only
And when he's done he′ll leave you lonely
He′ll murder your love; he murdered mine
Just wait and see -
Just wait, Maria
Just wait and see!

MARIA
Oh no, Anita, no -
Anita, no!

It isn't true, not for me
It′s true for you, not for me
I hear your words -
And in my head
I know they're smart
But my heart, Anita
But my heart
Knows they′re wrong

(ANITA reprises the she has just sung, as MARIA continues her song)

MARIA
And my heart
Is too strong
For I belong
To him alone, to him alone
One thing I know:
I am his
I don't care what he is
I don′t know why it's so
I don't want to know
Oh no, Anita, you should know better!
You were in love, or so you said
You should know better...

I have a love, and it′s all that I have
Right or wrong, what else can I do?
I love him; I′m his
And everything he is
I am, too
I have a love and it's all that I need
Right or wrong, and he needs me too
I love him, we′re one
There's nothing to be done
Not a thing I can do
But hold him, hold him forever
Be with him now, tomorrow
And all of my life!

MARIA and ANITA
When love comes so strong
There is no right or wrong
Your love is your life!
