Bei Mir Bist Du Schön

Verse 1

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

Verse 2

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

Verse 3

Bei mir bist do schon, please let me explain

Bei mir bist do schon means you're grand

Bei mir bist do schon, again I'll explain

It means you're the fairest in the land

Verse 4

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 do schon

So kiss me and say you understand

Verse 5

Bei mir bist do schon, you've heard it all before

but let me try to explain

Bei mir bist do schon means that you're grand

Bei mir bist do schon, it's such an old refrain

and yet I should explain

It means I am begging for your hand

Verse 6

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

Outgo

I've tried to explain, bei mir bist do schon

So kiss me and say that you will understand
