  • 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

      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.

      @@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.

    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.

      No, that’s lying. Evan lied.
      Gaslighting is purposefully causing someone to doubt their own reality in order to make them feel crazy.

      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.
