Bei Mir Bist Du Schon (Means That You're Grand)

Of all the girls 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 schon, please let me explain

Bei mir bist du schon means you're grand

Bei mir bist du schon, 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 schon

So kiss me and say you understand



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

but let me try to explain

Bei mir bist du schon means that you're grand

Bei mir bist du schon, 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 schon

So kiss me and say that you will understand
