Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen (1937 Single Version)

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 schoen, please let me explain

Bei mir bist du schoen means you're grand

Bei mir bist du schoen, again I'll explain

It means you're the fairest in the land

I could say "Bella, bella", even say "Sehr wunderbar"

Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are

I've tried to explain, bei mir bist du schoen

So kiss me and say you understand

Bei mir bist du schoen, you've heard it all before

But let me try to explain

Bei mir bist du schoen means that you're grand

Bei mir bist du schoen, 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

Ree-dee

Ree-dee-ree-dee

Ree-dee-ree-dee-ree-dee

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 schoen

So kiss me and say that you will understand
