How Long Will I Love You (from the About Time OST) ☆ How Long Will I Love You (from the About Time OST)

[SKY]
It is nice to know Ms. Sarah,
that someone in the world
is a guy that might appeal to you,
I wonder what this guy will be like.

[SARAH]
He will NOT be a gambler.

[SKY]
I’m not interested in what he will NOT be.
I am interested in what he WILL be.

[SARAH]
Don’t worry, I’ll know.

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 type.

[SARAH]
Yes, and I shall meet him when the time is right.

[SKY]
You’ve got the guy all figured out.

[SARAH] I have.

[SKY]
Including what he smokes. All figured out, huh?

[SARAH]
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.

[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 ’till then, I shall wait.
And ’till then, I’ll be strong.
Oh, I’ll know, when my love comes along.

[SKY]
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]
I wouldn’t expect a gambler to understand.

[SKY]
Would you like to hear how a gambler feels about the big heart throb?

[SARAH] No!

[SKY] Well, I’ll tell you.

Mine will come as a surprise to me.
Mine I lead to chance and chemistry.

[SARAH] Chemistry?

[SKY] 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

[SARAH] I’ll know

[BOTH] When my love comes along.

[SKY]
Well, I’ll drop in again,
In case you want to take a crack at the other cheek.

[SARAH]
I won’t take a chance.
I know he’ll be just what I need
Not some fly-by-night Broadway romance.
And ’till then, I shall wait.
And ’till then, I’ll be strong.
Oh, I’ll know when my love comes along.
