I Love You Song

I Love You Song Song Lyrics

---

MR. PANCH (spoken)
Miss Ostrovsky. Chimerical

OLIVE (spoken)
May I have a definition?

MR. PANCH (spoken, voice fading out)
It means unreal, magical, visionary, wildly fanciful, highly unrealistic

OLIVE’S MOM
Ooooooooh
Ooooooooh

OLIVE
If I go to Washington
Will I be on my own?
Because if I go to Washington

OLIVE’S MOM
Aaaaaaaah

OLIVE
Who will be my chaperone?

OLIVE’S MOM
We always knew you were a winner
We saw it when you smiled
Start from the beginning
When you were a beginner
You were the perfect child
We always knew
We always knew
You were a champion
You sadness filled my room
Dear if you should feel my gloom
Blame it on me
Blame it on your Daddalee and Mammalee
‘Cause depression runs in our family

I love you
I love you
I love everything about you dear
And I swear it’s true
I love you

OLIVE’S DAD
I love you

OLIVE
And my dad says

OLIVE’S DAD, OLIVE’S MOM
I love you
I love everything about you [DAD: baby, MOM: babe]
And maybe it’s true
I love you

OLIVE
I wrote you a letter
How I found the spelling bee such fun
Mama, Mama, Mama
But you didn’t react
And you never asked me
If I’d join you in the Bombay sun
Mama, Mama, Mama
I had quietly packed
When are you returning?
I know we agreed
Tell me what you’re learning
Ma, I have, Oh God, this need
I think Dad is angry, Ma
And I do not know what to do
Mama, Mama, Mama
Shanti Shanti and all
I think he takes out on me
What he wants to take out on you
Mama, Mama, Mama
How I wish you were home
How I wish you were home
How I wish you were
Wish you were home

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
We always knew you were a winner

OLIVE
How I wish you were home

OLIVE’S MOM
A bathing beauty, you

OLIVE (overlapping Olive’s Mom)
How I wish you were
How I wish you were home

OLIVE’S DAD
God, we love the way you grew
Since you were born

OLIVE (overlapping Olive’s Dad)
How I wish you were
How I wish you were home

OLIVE’S MOM
Olive, we couldn’t be prouder

OLIVE
Mama, Mama, Mama
How I wish you were home

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD (overlapping Olive)
Please let me say it
One time louder

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
I love you
I love you
I love everything about you [DAD: baby, MOM: dear]

OLIVE’S MOM
And I swear

OLIVE’S DAD
Baby

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
It’s true
I love you

OLIVE
Mama

OLIVE, OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
I love you

OLIVE
I love you, Mama

OLIVE, OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
I love you

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
I love everything about you [DAD: baby, MOM: dear]

OLIVE (overlapping Olive’s Mom, Olive’s Dad)
Mama
Mama

OLIVE’S MOM
And I swear

OLIVE’S DAD
Baby

OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
It’s true
I love

OLIVE (spoken)
Chimerical. C-h-i-m-e-r-i-c-a-l. Highly unrealistic, wildly fanciful.

MR. PANCH (spoken)
That is correct.

OLIVE, OLIVE’S MOM, OLIVE’S DAD
I love you
