If You Could See Her Lyrics

If You Could See Her Song Lyrics

---

[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 know 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.

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.

[Dance Segment]

[Spoken]
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 Verstandnis. 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.
