If You Could See Her lyrics

M.C.:
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
If you could see her thru my eyes,
You wouldn`t wonder at all.
If you could see her thru 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 thru 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 thru my eyes,
Maybe they`d all understand...

[Spoken]
Ladies and Gentlemen, I ask you,
Is there a crime to fall in love?
Can one ever choose where our heats lead us?

[Sung]
Oh, I understand your objection,
I grant my problem`s not small;
But if you could see her thru my eyes,
She isn`t a meeskite at all!
