If You Could See Her |
| EMCEE: |
| I know what you’re thinking |
| You wonder why I chose her |
| Out of all the ladies in the world |
| That’s just a first impression |
| What good’s a first impression? |
| If you knew her like I do |
| It would change your point of view |
| If you could see her through my eyes |
| You wouldn’t wonder at all |
| If you could see her through my eyes |
| I guarantee you would fall (like I did) |
| When we’re in public together |
| I hear society moan |
| But if they could see her through my eyes |
| Maybe they’d leave us alone |
| (There you are, my Liebling. Your favorite!) |
| How can I speak of her virtues? |
| I don’t know where to begin |
| She’s clever, she’s smart, she reads music |
| She doesn’t smoke or drink gin (like I do) |
| Yet, when we’re walking together |
| They sneer if I’m holding her hand |
| But if they could see her through my eyes |
| Maybe they’d all understand |
| Why can’t they leave us alone? |
| Meine Damen und Herren, Mesdames et Messieurs |
| Ladies and Gentlemen |
| Is it a crime to fall in love? |
| Can we ever tell where the heart truly leads us? |
| All we are asking is eine bisschen Verständnis — |
| A little understanding — |
| Why can’t the world 'leben und leben lassen'? |
| 'Live and let live…' |
| I understand your objection |
| I grant you the problem’s not small |
| But if you could see her through my eyes |
| She wouldn’t look Jewish at all |
