Taken from www.nancies.org:
'You Never Know' plays in a variant of 3/8 time with the emphasis on the 8th note. On the verses, Carter plays in duplets instead of triplets against the 3/8. In the meantime, he puts in a fake downbeat that is a backbeat of a duplet, making dancing to it a real adventure. The bridge has alternating 5/8 and 3/8 bars, with the 3/8 bars having a feel of 3/4 with the accent falling on every two eighth notes instead of on every three eighth notes. This time signature treatment is common in classical.
