[Verse 1]
I'll know when my love comes along
I'll know then and there
I'll know at the sight of his face
How I care, how I care, how I care
And I'll stop and I'll stare

[Verse 2]
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

[Bridge]
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
There he'll stand before my eyes one day
I won't need a second glance his way

[Verse 2]
I'll know
Yes, 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 stare at that face in the throng
Yes, I'll know when my love comes along
