Guys and Dolls, Act I Scene 10: No. 17a, I've Never Been in Love Before

"Sky (hands on her waist) (sings)

I’ve never been in love before,

Now all at once it’s you,

(lets go of her)

It’s you forever more.

I’ve never been in love before,

I thought my heart was safe,

I thought I knew the score.

But this is wine that’s all too strange and strong.

I’m full of foolish song

(takes her hands)

And out my song must pour.

So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in;

I’ve really never been in love before.

Sarah (sings)

I’ve never been in love before,

Now all at once it’s you,

It’s you forever more.

I’ve never been in love before,

I thought my heart was safe,

I thought I knew the score.

But this is wine that’s all too strange and strong.

I’m full of foolish song

And out my song must pour.

Both (He takes her hand and She turns to him.)

So please forgive this helpless haze I’m in;

I’ve really never been in love before."
