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 wracked 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 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
Is such an old refrain and yet I should explain
It means I am begging for your hand
