25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
The I Love You Song
Miss Ostrovsky
"Chimerical"
May I have a definition?
It means unreal, magical (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Visionary, wildly fanciful
Highly unrealistic
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
If I go to Washington
Will I be on my own?
Because if I go to Washington (ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Who will be my chaperone?
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
Your 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
I love you
And my dad says
I love you
I love everything about you, babe (I love everything about you, baby)
And maybe it's true (maybe is true)
I love you
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 Om
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
We always knew you were a winner (home)
How I wish you were home
A bathing beauty, you (how I wish you were)
How I wish you were home
God, we love the way you grew (how I wish you were)
Since you were born (how I wish you were home)
Olive, we couldn't be prouder
Please let me say it (Mama, Mama, Mama)
One time louder (how I wish you were)
I love you (home!)
I love you
I love everything about you
Dear (Baby)
And I swear it's true (Baby, it's true)
I love you (Mama!)
I love you (I love you, Mama)
I love you
I love everything (Mama!)
About you (Mama!)
Dear (baby!)
And I swear it's true (Baby, it's true)
I love

Highly unrealistic, wildly fanciful
That is correct
I love you
