DIETER BOHLEN - Bitterblue (1991 BMG CD 262 142)

01. BITTERBLUE [Howard Houston]

I’ll take the train to nowhere - this love is a sacrifice.
My heart ain’t big enough (babe) for your paradise.
Oh darling, I’m crazy after all these years.
Don’t throw away my love, babe - I’m not a lonely child.
Tomorrow’s such a long time - my dreams are running wild.
Oh darling, I’m crazy after all these years.
I gave you all my love for free.
My tears are full of memories.
Give me love, give me all.
Baby, catch me when I’ll fall tonight.

Refrain:
Bitterblue, oh, bitterblue -
breaking up is hard to do.
Bitterblue - you know that I’m too proud to cry.
Bitterblue, oh, bitterblue -
I can’t take my eyes off you -
and that’s no way to say goodbye.

I’ll be sailing on a rainbow if you will change your mind.
Don’t throw away this love, babe - love is hard to find.
Oh darling, I’m crazy after all these years.
Come save a little room (babe) in your heart for me.
We can make it better - love is a mystery.
Oh darling, I’m crazy after all these years.
Oh, I sold my heart to you.
I gave you love (and heaven, too).
(no) give me love, give me all.
Baby, catch me when I’ll fall tonight.

REFRAIN (twice)

And that’s no way to say goodbye.
And that’s no way to say goodbye.

02. AGAINST THE WIND [Dieter Bohlen]

Living in a danger zone
A lonely man - a lonely child
So many miles from home
Emotions running wild with me.
Come take my heart, come feel the burns of fire.
Come and break my heart, and feel my loving mind. Oh!

Refrain:
Against the wind I’m flying.
Against the wind I’m crying.
This night was made for a lonely.
Don’t break my heart tonight, oh no.

REFRAIN

Oh, you need a helping hand -
the times are getting tough.
Baby, come and try again -
there’s no living without love in my heart.
Well, it’s hard for me, but it’s harder to ignore it.
Oh my fantasy, come feel my love tonight. Yeah!

REFRAIN

Against the wind I’m flying.
Against the wind I’m crying.
This night was made for a lonely.
Don’t break my heart tonight,
don’t break my heart tonight, oh no.

09. TELL ME THE TRUTH [Dieter Bohlen]

I told you once, I told you twice -
this love is not a sacrifice.
Oh, take my heart and don’t be a dreamer.
Oh, tears may go and years may come.
See my heart, look what you’ve done.
Oh, take my heart and don’t be a dreamer.
Oh, don’t be a dreamer who’s killing my heart.

Refrain:
Tell me the truth - time’s on my side.
Oh baby, give it one more try.
Tell me the truth - no compromise.
Only a strong love will survive.
I never tear apart.
It’s written in my heart.
I never ever hurt you. Oh!

I wasted days, I wasted nights -
a restless love and endless fight.
Oh, take my heart and don’t be a dreamer.
My world begins and ends with you.
A breathless love painted in blue.
Oh, take my heart and don’t be a dreamer.
Oh, don’t be a dreamer who’s killing my heart.

REFRAIN

Oh baby!
Tell me the truth - time’s on my side.
Oh baby, I stay by your side.
Tell me the truth - no compromise.
Only a strong love will survive.
Tell me the truth - time’s on my side.
Oh baby, I stay by your side.
Tell me the truth - no compromise.
Only a strong love will survive.

13. TOO HOT [Howard Houston]

Hearts beating like a drum,
like foxes on the run.
Nothing, baby, nothing is forever.
It’s too late to stop me now -
you couldn’t anyhow.
Baby, can’t you see us together?
Oho, tell me, baby -
oho, tell me now - tell me now -
tell me now - baby, now.

Refrain:
Are you too hot? Can’t you see it’s forever?
I’d sail with you the seven seas
’cause I know (babe) what you feel.
Are you too hot? Can’t you see it’s forever?
I’d say it’s like a symphony -
babe, you know the way I feel.

Oh, be my eternity - baby, come on back to me (baby) tonight.

Reaching out to take your hand
Together we will stand -
not just in my arms, but in my heart.
You know I love you so much.
I live my life for your touch.
Was it just a faith right from the start?
Oho, tell me, baby -
Oho, tell me now - tell me now -
tell me now.

REFRAIN

Oh, be my eternity - baby, come on back to me (baby) tonight - tonight - tonight - tonight.

REFRAIN (thrice)

14. WHY [Dieter Bohlen]

It’s a restless night - and I feel the pain.
This love is a sacrifice.
We can’t build a fire (babe) in the rain.
Oh, the night has a thousand eyes.
How deep is your love, babe?
No one cares about you.
I will love you tomorrow.
See what my love can do.

Baby, why - why should I hurt you? How many tears can I hide?
Nobody loves you like I do - time is on my side.
Baby!

You will close your eyes - I’ll stay by your side.
I don’t care if the sun don’t shine.
When your heart feels like (oh) a motherless child,
you are always (oh) in my mind.
How deep is your love, babe?
No one cares about you.
But it’s not too late, babe.
See what my love can do, baby!

Baby, why - why should I hurt you? How many tears can I cry?
Nobody loves you like I do - time is on my side.
Baby!

(Why) - why should I hurt you? How many tears can I hide?
Nobody loves you like I do - time is on my side.
