I’ll Know

Lyrics
[SKY, spoken] It is nice to know, Miss Sarah, that somewhere in the world There's a guy who might appeal to you I wonder what this guy will be like? [SARAH, spoken] He will not be a gambler [SKY, spoken] I'm not interested in what he will not be I am interested in what he will be [SARAH, spoken] Don't worry, I'll know [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 Scarsdale Galahad The breakfast-eating, Brooks Brothers typе [SARAH, spoken] Yes! [SARAH] And I shall meet him when the timе is ripe [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 [SARAH] 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, spoken] No, no, no, you're 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 heart throb? [SARAH, spoken] No [SKY, spoken] Well, I'll tell you [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 [SKY & SARAH] Comes along (I'll know) [SKY & SARAH] When my love comes along [SKY kisses SARAH tenderly but she doesn't respond. They separate. SARAH comes over to SKY and slaps him.] [SKY, spoken] Oh, I'll drop in again Case you want to take a crack at the other cheek [SARAH] I won't take a chance My love will be just what I need Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance And 'til then, I shall wait And 'til then, I'll be strong For I'll know when my love comes along
