I'll Know
SARAH
For I've imagined every bit of him
To the strong moral fiber to the wisdom in his head
To the home-y aroma of his pipe
SKY
You have wished yourself a Scarsdale Galahad
The breakfast-eating, Brooks-brothers type.
SARAH
Yes, and I shall meet him when the time is right.
SARAH
I'll know when my love comes along
I won't take a chance.
I'll know he'll be just what I need
Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance.
SKY
And you'll know at a glance by the two-pair of pants.
SARAH
I'll know by the calm steady voice
Those feet on the ground.
I'll know as I run to his arms
That at last I've come home safe and sound.
Until then, I shall wait.
Until then, I'll be strong.
Oh, I'll know, when my love comes along.
SKY
Mine will come as a surprise to me.
Mine I lead to chance and chemistry.
SARAH (spoken)
Chemistry?
SKY (spoken)
Yeah, chemistry.
SKY (sung)
Suddenly I'll know when my love comes along
I'll know then and there
I'll know at the sight of her face
How I care, how I care, how I care
And I'll stop. And I'll stare.
And I'll know long before we can speak
I'll know in my heart.
I'll know and I won't ever ask
Am I right, am I wise, am I smart.
And I'll stop. And I'll stare.
At that face. In the throng.
Yes, I'll know when my love comes along
I'll know
When my love comes along.
For I've imagined every bit of him
To the strong moral fiber to the wisdom in his head
To the home-y aroma of his pipe
SKY
You have wished yourself a Scarsdale Galahad
The breakfast-eating, Brooks-brothers type.
SARAH
Yes, and I shall meet him when the time is right.
SARAH
I'll know when my love comes along
I won't take a chance.
I'll know he'll be just what I need
Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance.
SKY
And you'll know at a glance by the two-pair of pants.
SARAH
I'll know by the calm steady voice
Those feet on the ground.
I'll know as I run to his arms
That at last I've come home safe and sound.
Until then, I shall wait.
Until then, I'll be strong.
Oh, I'll know, when my love comes along.
SKY
Mine will come as a surprise to me.
Mine I lead to chance and chemistry.
SARAH (spoken)
Chemistry?
SKY (spoken)
Yeah, chemistry.
SKY (sung)
Suddenly I'll know when my love comes along
I'll know then and there
I'll know at the sight of her face
How I care, how I care, how I care
And I'll stop. And I'll stare.
And I'll know long before we can speak
I'll know in my heart.
I'll know and I won't ever ask
Am I right, am I wise, am I smart.
And I'll stop. And I'll stare.
At that face. In the throng.
Yes, I'll know when my love comes along
I'll know
When my love comes along.
