If You Could See Her Songtext
von Alan Cumming

I know what you′re thinking
You wondered 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 you're 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 togtheer
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 favourite!
How can I speak of her virtues
I don't know where to begin?


She′s clever, she's smart, she reads musics
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 and Messieurs
Ladies and Gentleman
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
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
