[Intro: Barbra Streisand]
Anyway, I'll never forget, um, when I was thirteen
Some things improve with age
Uh, this friend of mine named Barbara Sankell
Who knew that I wanted to be an actress
Told me about this actor named Marlon Brando
Who was in a movie called Guys and Dolls
Which I also didn't know was from a Broadway play
And so I went to see it
And it was truly a life-altering experience
Seeing Marlon Brando for the first time
It was the only movie that I ever sat through twice
Just to get to see him again and to have another Mello-Roll
Anyway, I'll never forget this song
[Verse 1: Barbra Streisand, Marlon Brando, Both]
I'll know when my love comеs along
I'll know then and there
And I rеmember sitting in the theater with my hormones raging
And my Mello-Roll melting all over me and I
I felt this, um, I don't know, what do you call it?
Um, chemistry?
Yeah, chemistry
Suddenly, I'll know (Hello, gorgeous)
When my love comes along (Is he something or what?)
I'll know (Oh my God)
Then and there (Here I am)
I'll know (On the aisle)
At the sight of her face (My face?)
How I care, how I care, how I care
Who wouldn't care?
And I'll stop (Don't stop)
And I'll stare (Well, you could stare)
[Verse 2: Barbra Streisand, Marlon Brando, Both]
And I'll know (I knew)
Long before we can speak (From the moment I saw you)
I'll know (Yes, I knew)
In my heart (In my heart)
I'll know (Take me now)
And I won't ever ask
"Am I right? Am I wise? Am I smart?"
But I'll stop (Could you faint?)
And I'll stare (From that smile)
At that face (That face)
In the throng
Oy
Yes, I'll know (Yes, I′ll know)
When my love (When my love)
Comes along
[Outro: Barbra Streisand]
Oh, I was so jealous of Jean Simmons
I mean that she got to have him fall in love with her
And she got to kiss him and everything
I fell in love with you, Marlon
Right then and there
At the Loew's Kings theater in Flatbush
