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 ol´ world seemed new to me

You´re really swell, I have to admit you
These are the 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 la-a-a-and

I could say bella bella, even sir-ir 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 sir-ir wunderbar
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are

Re-dee, re-dee, re-dee, re-dee, re-dee, re-dee

I could say bella bella, even sir-ir 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...
