DIETER BOHLEN - 21st Century (1994 BMG CD 74321 19575-2)

01. WELCOME TO THE 21st CENTURY

Welcome! Welcome, 21st century!

02. 6 YEARS - 6 NIGHTS

I wait six years - I wait six nights.

Oh, endless road - a second chance
I call your name like in a trance.
I will run to you, I will die for you.
Divided heart, divided soul
are burning in a flame of hope.
I will run to you, I will die for you.
You can run - you can hide.
Love is like a light - can’t you see?

Refrain:
I wait six years, six nights for you.
I’ll give my heart, my pride - that’s true.
I will wait - I will wait till I meet you.
I will wait - I will wait. My dreams come true.
I wait six years, six nights - for sure
I’ll give my heart - no fight before.
I will wait - I will wait down in the flame.
I will wait - I will wait. See you again.

I wait six years - I wait six nights.

A missing heart - a lonely sky
Above the clouds, I hear a cry.
I will run to you, I will die for you.
A friend you win - a friend you lose
My baby, take a broken fool.
I will run to you, I will die for you.
You can run - you can hide.
Love is like a light - can’t you see?

REFRAIN

Please forgive my heart, forgive my heart
Please forgive my heart, forgive my heart

REFRAIN

03. VENICE IN THE RAIN

Bitter-sweet: my heart - it feels so weak.
Sailing home to a place I’ve never known.
Some hearts will never change (never change).
Some hearts will never change.
A broken dream: I’m losing - oh, it seems.
Oh, I can’t explain why I lose again.
Some hearts will never change (never change).
Some hearts will never change.

Refrain:
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Oh, no matter how Caruso sing
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Why you left me, my everything
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Is there one who someway stole the moon?
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Baby, oh, you left me much too soon.
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Waking up and feeling so alone
(Leaving Venice in the rain) Feeling that nobody is at home

Rescue me - I feel you disappear.
Unchained love - I never get enough.
Some hearts will never change (never change).
Some hearts will never change.
Behind my smile (oh baby) see me cry.
No tears of joy - oh, I’m a lonely boy.
Some hearts will never change (never change).
Some hearts will never change.

04. IF I WILL RULE THE WORLD

Baby, I swear you
Baby, I will die
I will run to you

We live in New York till the rain.
East of the sun, see you again.
I love you (baby) with deep emotion.
Oh, where the mountain meets the sky
West of the moon, I could not hide.
Love you (lady) with deep devotion.
I love you every night - I love you every day.
This is a deep love odyssey.

Refrain:
If I will rule the world, I promised you the best of me.
If I will rule the world, you’ll ever get the best for free.
For every heart, every soul
Pray in my bed and losing control.
If I will rule the world, I promised you the best of me.
If I will rule the world, you’ll ever get the best for free.
For every heart, every soul
Pray in my bed and losing control.

I’m leaving you an S. O. S.
Turn off your dream, and confess.
Love me, baby, see my emotion.
Or is there something that I should know?
Closer to heaven we will go.
Be my lady - with sweet devotion.
I love you every night - I love you every day.
This is a deep love odyssey.

05. SACRIFICE

Dragon was a rolling stone -
the lonely highway was his home.
Father told him what he used to be.
“Don’t bring scandal on my family” - he said.
Friends are always right on time.
Oh no, there is darkness - there is crime.
Things ain’t what they used to be.
“Don’t bring scandal on my family” - he said.
“Don’t bring scandal on my family.”

Refrain:
Oh no, why is love such a sacrifice for you?
On my wings of destiny, we live in love, in harmony.
Oh no, why is love such a sacrifice for you?
On the road of mystery, you lose your heart and sanity.

Dragon didn’t understand:
oh, he stole money, killed a man -
destroyed his life - no sense to be.
He brought scandal on my family (oh no).
Oh, he was not man enough:
he killed himself - thought it’s tough.
Before he died, he said to me:
“Don’t want scandal on my family.” He said:
“Don’t want scandal on my family.”

REFRAIN

Oh no, why is love such a sacrifice for you?
On my wings of destiny, we live in love, in harmony.
Oh no, why (why) is love such a sacrifice for you?
On the road of mystery, you lose your heart and sanity.

Oh no-no, why (why) is love such a sacrifice for you?
I don’t know. Why (why) is love such a sacrifice for you?
Please tell me: why (why) is love such a sacrifice for you?
Why?

06. WHEN BOGART TALKS TO YOU

Oh, you said that you’re faithful - big dreams still are useful.
Now I cry and I cry to the end of a lonely night.
Don’t say it’s okay - this goodbye (this goodbye).

Oh, it’s hard but it’s fair
Baby, I don’t care
A part of me is dying.
Oh, I’m here and you’re there -
call me everywhere.
Cross my mind - I’m dying.
Oh, I love you till the end of time.
Oh no, I love you till I die.

Refrain:
Don’t break the silence (don’t) when Bogart talks to you.
Don’t break the silence of love when Bogart talks to you.
Don’t break the silence (don’t) when Bogart talks to you.
Love me (baby, oh), kiss me (baby) - don’t miss me with emotion.
Love me (baby, oh), kiss me (baby) - don’t miss me with devotion.

Oh, you said that you’re faithful - big dreams still are useful.
Now I cry and I cry to the end of a lonely night.
Don’t say it’s okay - this goodbye (this goodbye).

Oh, my heart needs a home
Baby, I’m alone
Love (I know) is passion.
We’re friends (and not stone)
(baby) without home.
A love is obsession.
Oh, I love you till the end of time.
Oh no, I love you till I die.

REFRAIN

Don’t break the silence (don’t) when Bogart talks to you.
Don’t break the silence of love when Bogart talks to you.
Don’t break the silence (don’t) when Bogart talks to you.
Don’t break the silence of love when Bogart talks to you.

07. THAT’S LOVE

Go if you wanna go
Stay if you don’t know
Friends stay together. Baby, call me - I’ll be there.
Feel what you wanna feel
My (oh) love is so real
Friends - we’re forever (baby) here and everywhere.
Don’t keep your distance
Don’t lose resistance
Don’t you want my heart?

Refrain:
That’s love - we’ll win again
This love is like an ocean.
That’s love - it’s not a game
How deep is your emotion?
That’s love - a burning flame
This love is like a fire.
That’s love - it’s not the same
You can’t stop my desire.

Call if you want me
Fall if you can’t see
Try if you want to try all of my sweet heart.
Words don’t come easy
Words - they can hurt me
Friends stay together (baby), never break apart.
Don’t play with fire
Don’t stop desire
Don’t you want my heart?

REFRAIN (twice)

08. LADY UNFORGETTABLE

Oh, it’s five o’clock, and I cannot sleep.
You are in New York - and my heart is weak.
I’m watching you on this photograph.
I’m the biggest fool and I hear your laugh.
Lady, careless memory
Lady, be my guarantee
What a difference it makes alone again
Lady, I call your name.

Refrain:
Oh Lady Unforgettable, hold on me
Oh Lady Unforgettable, can’t you see:
(oh) I’m losing my heart and I’m losing my mind
My lonely heart - it can’t survive.
Oh Lady Unforgettable, talk to me
Oh Lady Unforgettable, can’t you see:
I got what I want but I lost what I had
It’s a crazy world when a love goes bad.

In this bed of fire, I feel Loneliness
and my lost desire of your sweet caress.
I’m too proud to beg and too weak to cry.
I’m alone again - it’s my last goodbye.
Lady, it’s emergency
Lady, oh, please come back to me
An ocean of fire is burning inside.
Lady, don’t lose your pride.

REFRAIN

09. THIS OLD TOWN

Baby, I will hurt you - oh, come let me alone
Heart is a heart and a home is a home.
Baby, I will find you - I will get you by phone
Heart is a heart and a home is a home.
If you fool me, sister - drive me mad
Under pressure - maximum sad

Refrain:
This old town ain’t big enough (baby) for the two of us.
It’s the end of an old love odyssey.
This old town ain’t big enough (baby) for the two of us.
I will see you - I will hold you in L. A.

Baby, I will please you - but you leave me alone
Heart is a heart and a home is a home.
Baby, I will hate you in a danger zone
Heart is a heart and a home is a home.
Oh, you’re so cool, sister - drive me mad
Under pressure - maximum sad

REFRAIN

REFRAIN (twice)

10. 21st CENTURY

Oh, I know that I’m guilty. Do I ever cross your mind?
Oh, I feel that you need me - I said: “I have no time”.
I’m losing more than I ever had - after all the love is gone.
And the more I look - it drives me mad. Where does my heart belong?

Refrain:
Oh, it’s a 21st love century. It’s the time for you and me.
Baby, I love you - for sure.
Baby, I’ll hold you once more. Baby, I’ll die in your sweet arms.
Oh, it’s a 21st love century. Don’t you feel the energy?
Baby, I miss you - for sure.
Baby, I’ll kiss you once more. Baby, I’ll die in your sweet charms.

Now

Will you love me tomorrow? Always loved a missing flame.
In a world (full of sorrow), love is such a thing.
Oh, the way I go - oh, the less you know. I feel passion - I feel pain.
There’s a broken heart - and it tears apart. Leave me in the rain.

REFRAIN

Oh, it’s a 21st love century. It’s the time for you and me.
Baby, I love you - for sure.
Baby, I’ll hold you once more. Baby, I’ll die in your sweet arms.
Oh, it’s a.

11. SISTER COOL

Down in the flame - down in the passion
Oh, I’m a slave to love.
I play no game - it’s all obsession -
words are not enough.
Oh, give me love - give me that special feeling.
Oh, give me all, and let us rocking and reeling.
Oh, give me sex - give me hope for this game tonight.

Refrain:
B-b-baby, don’t be Sister Cool
Oh, I will make good love to you
I waited every night - I waited every day
Baby, come tell me - we’ll make it one day.
B-b-baby, don’t be Sister Cool
I’ll show you what a love can do
You gave me such golden days, you gave me such golden nights
So I can show you - we’ll win a good prize.

Kissing the fool - kissing the fire
The closer we can get.
Don’t break the rules of deep desire
(sleeping in your bed).
Oh, give me charm - give me a sweet sensation.
Give me all - I want this good vibration.
Oh, give me sex - give me love for this sweet-sweet night.

REFRAIN

B-b-baby, don’t be Sister Cool
Oh, I will make good love to you
I waited every night - I waited every day
Baby, come tell me - we’ll make it one day.
