- Working with Lemons presents "If I Could Tell Her" from the Broadway musical DEAR EVAN HANSEN. #youwillbefound
"If I Could Tell Her" is Evan telling Zoe of all of the nice things Connor supposedly said about her, using it as a cover for how Evan truly feels about Zoe. We wanted to follow up from our other videos "waving through a window" and "You will be found" to let everyone know they are important and we all have doubts and struggles.
Dear Evan Hansen synopsis:
A letter that was never meant to be seen, a lie that was never meant to be told, a life he never dreamed he could have. Evan Hansen is about to get the one thing he’s always wanted: a chance to finally fit in.
The original Broadway musical won both a Grammy and a Tony, particularly for Ben Platt's fantastic performance. The musical and lyrics have helped start discussions and awareness of mental illness and youth suicide.

Lyrics to "If I Could Tell Her" from Dear Evan Hansen
He thought you were awesome
He thought I was awesome? My brother?
Definitely!
How?
Well, he said
There's nothing like your smile
Sort of subtle and perfect and real
He said
You never knew how wonderful
That smile could make someone feel
And he knew
Whenever you get bored
You scribble stars on the cuffs of your jeans
And he noticed
That you still fill out the quizzes
That they put in those teen magazines
But he kept it all inside his head
What he saw he left unsaid
And though he wanted to
He couldn't talk to you
He couldn't find the way
But he would always say
If I could tell her
Tell her everything I see
If I could tell her
How she's everything to me
But we're a million worlds apart
And I don't know how I would even start
If I could tell her
If I could tell her
Did he say anything else?
About you?
Never mind, I don't really care anyways
No, no, no just, no, no he said, he said so many things
I'm just, I'm trying to remember the best ones so, um
He thought
You looked really pretty, er
It looked pretty cool when you put indigo streaks in your hair
He did?
And he wondered how you learned to dance
Like all the rest of the world isn't there
But he kept it all inside his head
What he saw he left unsaid
If I could tell her
Tell her everything I see
If I could tell her
How she's everything to me
But we're a million worlds apart
And I don't know how I would even start
If I could tell her
If I could tell her
But what do you do when there's this great divide?
He just seemed so far away
And what do you do when the distance is too wide?
It's like I don't know anything
And how do you say
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
But we're a million worlds apart
And I don't know how I would even start
If I could tell her
If I could
Songwriters: Benj Pasek / Justin Paul - Zábava

i would pay everything i have to watch a full movie with these actors. they're all amazing
Thanks!
Anyone but Ben Platt.. the movie didn't work with him in it. Glad I saw the Broadway production shortly afterwards to redeem itself. I still enjoyed Groundhog Day as a musical more.
Yeah righttt
@@slappy76 the movie works with Ben Platt. His acting is fine and his voice is excellent, which is important for a musical film. If you're busy looking at her receding hairlines or wrinkles, it's because you weren't very interested in watching the movie.
Agree
i found this channel from the waving through a window video. greatest dear evan hansen cover ive watched :)
Thanks!
Omg I love this so much! The voices, the acting, its beautiful! I've been listening to this song and repeat and then this popped up and I'm like YAAAAAASSSS
Thanks!
They are lip syncing to Laura and Ben’s cover
This Zoe is phenomenal! I hope you will make a video of "Requiem." Thanks for all you do!
This was so beautiful I found myself tearing up at the end. I have had it in my head all day. Love it.
I know it’s a dark comedy and you aren’t meant to take it 100% seriously, but listening to this again does really reinforce how terrible of a thing Evan is doing to Zoe. She sounds upset at herself near the end for not realizing and he’s creating a connection that wasn’t there. It a term that gets thrown a lot but this is gaslighting. Even if Evan just wanted to make people happy (at least in the beginning) , it’s still good to see that the Musical was aware how messed up it is. Something that it didn’t feel like the movie truly kept.
Great take on it.
Evan was wrong, but it definitely wasn’t gaslighting.
@@57andstillkicking is it not though. I mean manipulating someone I to thinking something was true when it wasnt kinda is
@@laurenpatrick4609
No, that’s lying. Evan lied.
Gaslighting is purposefully causing someone to doubt their own reality in order to make them feel crazy.
@@57andstillkicking which is what even did. So yeah it is
@@57andstillkickingWhat Evan was doing is the legitimate definition of Gaslighting so yes it was
Omgosh this channel is awesome and this version is beautiful..this should be a full movie and the zoe and evan is phoenomenal! Addicted to this song.
You two are very talented .You both have amazing voices .
OH MY GOD I FOUND THIS CHANNEL AGAIN IM GOING TO CRY GOOD JOB!!!

I love it all! Just gotta ask... what is Jared doing to the wall in the beginning?
This is Great! You should do For Forever aswell.
@@yshasy I just saw it the other day. I have watched it like 5 times
love you
So much better than the one they put out a year ago on the dear Evan Hansen channel
fantastic congrats
Thank you!
The comments are back! :D
Yes 😌
DEAR EVAN HANSEN out now on HBO max
Like why didn't they just let these people make the movie haha they would've been perfect everything they did was perfect and I'm so worried about a ghostly pale with fake hair Ben Platt
I first heard this song a few years ago in a nightcore version, then I came across this video. I thought this was from a movie
I got really confused when I saw commercials for a Dear Evan Hansen movie coming out this year, I thought I saw something from the future
I mean Platt was the only actor who was bad. The actor who played Zoe was really good and that’s my opinion as well as most critics.
Why do I like these casts than the original one?
Singer's name?
His voice sounds like a Violin 0₩0
ok I can't stop watching these and getting more upset with how weak the movie's interpretation was by comparison lol. I would watch you guys perform the whole play and probably enjoy myself immensely
