Bei Mir Bist Du Schön

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 say "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'll 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 say "wunderbar".

Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are

I could say "bella, bella", even say "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 that you'll understand.
