Barbra Streisand I Want to Be Seen With You Tonight Lyrics

Afterwards, Ziegfeld is angry but agrees she was right
to go for the comedy. Nick Arnstein comes backstage
and wants to escort f____ out to celebrate her opening night.
f____ would love to go out with Nick but she's obligated to
appear at a party at her mother's saloon; she invites Nick
and he accepts.

[Nick:]
I want to be seen, be seen with you,
With you on my arm,
To wear you like a charm,
Your glitter decorating my arm.
Now, natch'rally such proximity
Gives rumors a rise,
We'll let them a___yze
What our amalgamation implies.
Oh yes,
The gossips will press,
So willing to stress
The seamy side--
Know what?
So what!
I want to be seen, be seen with you,
With you on my arm.
Let's give this town a light,
And hit it like a me-te-or-ite-- tonight.
I want to be seen with you.
[f____:]
The moon over mother's saloon,
Have a nice macaroon
I'll buy you a light beer.
[Nick:]
Right, dear.
[Both:]
I want to be seen, be seen with you,
[Nick:]
With you on my arm.
Let's give this town a light
And hit it like a me-te-or-ite--
[Both:]
Tonight--I want to be seen with,
[Nick:]
Oh, please let me be seen with,
[f____:]
And I would like to be seen with
[Both:]
I want to be seen with you.
