Frank Loesser - I'll Know lyrics

For I've imagined every bit of him To the strong moral fiber to the wisdom in his head To the homey aroma of his pipe You have wished yourself a Scarsdale Galahad The breakfast-eating, Brooks-brothers type And I shall meet him when the time is right SKY. (spoken) You've got the guy all figured out. SARAH (spoken) I have. SKY (spoken) Including what he smokes. All figured out, huh? SARAH (spoken) All figured out. 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 And you'll know at a glance By the two-pair of pants 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. (spoken) No, no, no! You are talking about love! You can't dope it like that. What are you picking, a guy or a horse? SARAH (spoken) I wouldn't expect a gambler to understand. SKY (spoken) Would you like to hear how a gambler feels about the big heartthrob? SARAH (spoken) No! SKY (spoken) Well, I'll tell you. Mine will come as a surprise to me Mine I leave to chance and chemistry SARAH (spoken) Chemistry? SKY (spoken) Yeah, chemistry. 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 I'll know, I won't take a chance I know he'll be just what I need Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance Until then, I shall wait And till then, I'll be strong Oh, I'll know when my love comes along
