Bei Mir Bist Du Schon

Of all the boys I've known and I've known some
 Until I first met you I was lonesome
 And when you came in sight, dear, my heart grew light
 And this old world seemed new to me
 You're really swell, I have to admit you
 Deserve expressions that really fit you
 And so I've racked my brain hoping to explain
 All the things that you do to me
 Bei mir bist du schön, please let me explain
 'Bei mir bist du schön' means you're grand
 Bei mir bist du schön, again I'll explain
 It means you're the fairest in the land
 I could say 'bella, bella' even 'sehr wunderbar'
 Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
 I've tried to explain, 'bei mir bist du schön'
 So kiss me and say you understand
 Bei mir bist du schön
 You've heard it all before but let me try to explain
 'Bei mir bist du schön' means that you're grand
 'Bei mir bist du schön,' it's such an old refrain
 And yet I should explain, it means I am begging for your hand
 I could say 'bella, bella' even 'sehr wunderbar'
 Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
 I could say 'bella, bella' even 'sehr wunderbar'
 Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
 I've tried to explain 'bei mir bist du schn'
 So kiss me and say that you will understand!
