Somebody kind who touches your mind Will suddenly touch your heart
When that happens, after it happens
Nothing is quite the same
Somehow you know, you'll jump up and go If ever he calls your name Gone are your old ideas of life The old ideas grow dim
Lo and behold, you're someone's wife And you belong to him
You may think this kind of adventure
Never may come to you
Darling sixteen going on seventeen
Wait a year or two I'll wait a year
Just wait a year or two
