Héloïse
How do the blossoms know it's spring?
Who tells the bud that it's a rose?
How does the blue finch learn to sing?
How does a girl become a woman?
How does my song inside get born?
Who tells the stars that it's the morn?
Have you ever seen a rose without a thorn?
How does a girl become a woman?

Blanche
Please, be careful. Please, be careful
It's best to look before you leap
Plese, be careful. Please, be careful
You know, I'd hate to see you weep

Héloïse
I'll always look before I leap
Flying higher than the swans
I don't care if I never sleep
I know how a girl becomes a woman
I know how a girl becomes a woman
When he's wonderful
Blanche
And so warm, and so fine
Héloïse
When he's noble and upstanding
Blanche
When he's darling, and lowstanding
Héloïse
Every blossom blooms as fast as it can
Both
When a boy becomes a man
