[TESS]
I scare them away
The men in my life

[SAM]
I love you

[TESS, spoken]
Sorry?

[SAM]
What were you saying?

[TESS]
The men in my life
I may be too strong
I'm tall for my height
So maybe—

[SAM]
I love you

[TESS]
—it's my fault

[SAM]
But—
[TESS]
Let me go on

[SAM]
I'm sorry

[TESS]
'S alright
They seem to retreat
The more I advance

[SAM]
I love you

[TESS]
Excuse me?

[SAM]
Forget it

[TESS]
If only they'd give it a chance
And stand up as they should

[SAM]
I certainly would
[TESS]
And say, "I love you!"

[SAM]
I love you!

[TESS, spoken]
That's it, exactly!
(sung)
Competitive men
Resent my success
The others...

[SAM]
Say, Tessie—

[TESS]
Let's see now...

[SAM]
Now listen—

[TESS]
Where was I?

[SAM]
I love you
[TESS]
Oh, yes
My virginal charms
Have faded somewhat

[SAM]
You're wonderful

[TESS]
Listen—

[SAM]
I love you

[TESS]
I guess Marie Osmond I'm not
But enough about me

[SAM, spoken]
Hey, Tessie, how many fingers up?

[TESS, spoken]
Three!

[SAM, spoken]
Right!
(sung)
Now let's check your hearing

[TESS]
What's wrong with my hearing?

[SAM]
I said, "I love you"

[TESS]
What?

[SAM]
I said, "I love you"

[TESS]
I hear you, I hear you!

(Tess and Sam kiss.)

Please say that again

[SAM, spoken]
I love you!

[TESS]
Again, loud and clear

[SAM, spoken]
I! Love! You!

[TESS]
Now that you love me
Isn't it lovely down here?
