Lyrics

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?
He will not be a gambler
I'm not interested in what he will not be
I am interested in what he will be
Don't worry, I'll know
For I've imagined every bit of him
From his strong moral fibre 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
Yes, and I shall meet him when the time is right
You've got the guy all figured out
I have
Including what he smokes, all figured out, huh?
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
No, no, no, you are talking about love, you can't dope it like that
What are you picking, a guy or a horse?
I wouldn't expect a gambler to understand
Would you like to hear how a gambler feels about the big heart throb?
No
Well, I'll tell you
Mine will come as a surprise to me
Mine I leave to chance and chemistry
Chemistry?
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
But 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
Oh, I'll drop in again
'Case you wanna take a crack at the other cheek
I won't take a chance
I know it'll be just what I need
Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance
Until then, I shall wait
Until then, I'll be strong
Oh, I'll know when my love comes along
