If You Could See Her lyrics

Emcee (appearing with a Gorilla)I know what you're thinking:You wondered why I chose herOut 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 doIt would change you're point of view. If you could see her through my eyesYou wouldn't wonder at all.If you could see her through my eyesI guarantee you would fall (like I did).When we're in public togtheerI hear society moan. But if they could see her through my eyesMaybe they'd leave us alone. Spoken: (There you are my liebling. Your favourite!)How can I speak of her virtues,I don't know where to begin?She's clever, she's smart, she reads musicsShe doesn't smoke or drink gin (like I do).Yet when we're walking togetherThey sneer if I'm holding her hand.But if they could see her through my eyesMaybe they'd all understand.(Emcee and Gorilla dance)Why can't they leave us alone. Spoken: Meine Damen und Herren, Mesdames and MessieursLadies and GentlemanIs 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 Why can't the world leben und leben lassen?'Live and let live....' I understand your objectionI grant you the problem's not smallBut if you could see her through my eyesShe wouldn't look Jewish at all.
