lyrics

Of all the gals that 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, dear
And this old world seemed new to me
Now you're really swell, I have to admit
That you deserve expressions that really fit you
And so I've wracked my brain, hoping to explain
All these things you do to me

Bei mir bist du schön
Please let me explain
Bei mir bist du schön it means you're grand
Bei mir bist du schön
You know, again I'll explain
It means you're the fairest in the land

I could say "bella, bella"
Even "sehr wünderbar"
Each landuage only helps me tell you
darling how grand I think you are

I've tried to explain, Bei mir bist du schön
So kiss me darling and say you'll understand

Well you've heard it all before
but let me try to explain
Bei mir bist do schön it means you're grand
it's such an old refrain, yet I should explain
It means I'm begging for your hand

I could say "bella, bella"
Even "sehr wünderbar"
Each language only helps me tell how grand you are

I've tried to explain, Bei mir bist du schön
So kiss me and say you'll understand
