Bei Mir Bist Du Schon Lyrics - It's The Girls! - Bette Midler

Of all the boys I've known and I've known some 

Until I first met you I was lonesome 

But 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 ought to 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've tried to explain 'bei mir bist du schön' 

So kiss me and say that you understand! (Oh baby oh don't be skittish) 

So kiss me and say that you understand! (I'm gonna teach about love and Yiddish) 

So kiss me and say that you understand! 

Pretty, pretty, pretty
