[SARAH]
For I've imagined every bit of him
From his strong moral fiber to the wisdom in his head
To the homey aroma of his pipe
[SKY]
You have wished yourself a small-town Galahad
The breakfast-eating, four-button type
[SARAH]
And I shall meet him when the time is ripe
I'll know when my love comes along
I won't take a chance
For oh, 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
And 'til then, I shall wait
And 'til then, I'll be strong
For I'll know when my love comes along
[SKY]
Mine will come as a surprise to me
Mine I leave to chance and chemistry
[SARAH, spoken]
Chemistry?
[SKY, spoken]
Yeah, chemistry
[SKY]
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?"
But I'll stop and I'll stare
At that face in the throng
Yes, I'll know when my love comes along
