Oh, darling mother, this was a mistake
I can never do the job
I never should have come
I'm far too dumb
I know she's going to miss that other girl
For at least she knew the job
Can you imagine how she'd rage at me
Should she discover
I'm really searching for a lover?
I mustn't think of that, I really mustn't
It's disloyal to Aunt Eleanor
She's paying all my expenses
I must do all I can to help her
I must keep calm
It won't be long before she'll realise
That I'm going to screw the job
Damn!
I'll lose her notes, and misquote quotes
She's bound to take a hate to me
And if she should dictate to me
I'll either turn and flee
Or fling myself head-first into the sea
I can touch-type
My shorthand's all right, as long as I
Don't get into a fluster and lose my head
Oh dear
I just can't keep out of my mind
What my heart is longing to find
All I do is wait and hope
And wait just a little bit more
Shall I find my personal dream
On some distant shore?
Or will he appear
Suddenly, right here?
Where shall I find him?
Where will he be?
Where shall I find him?
The one for me
Suddenly, suddenly, maybe we'll meet
On an ordinary day
On some ordinary street
How shall I know him?
What will he wear?
How shall I show him
How tenderly I care?
How shall I prove to him
Make him clearly see
That he's the only love for me?
How shall I know him?
What will he wear?
How shall I show him
How tenderly I care?
How shall I prove to him
Make him clearly see
That he's the only love for me?
