DIETER BOHLEN - In The Garden Of Venus (1987 BMG CD 258 770)

01. IN 100 YEARS…

Outside the gates of heaven - oh, there lives a unicorn.
I close my eyes to seven - oh, this world is not my home.
A broken heart in danger and a pillow filled with tears.
Oh, can you see the strangers in the pain and in the fear?
Can you feel my heart? Baby, don’t give up.
Can you feel my love tonight?

In 100 years
Love is illegal in hundred years from now.
In 100 years
Love is illegal in this lonely heartbreak town.
In 100 years
Love is illegal - all your dreams will die.
In 100 years
Love is illegal and your hope will not survive.

L.O.V.E. - Love is illegal
My heart - can you hear: my heart is beating ?
L.O.V.E. - Love is illegal
My heart - can you hear: my heart is beating ?


You’re looking through a fire - computers everywhere.
Oh, you’re a shotgun rider - control is here and there.
And you read old love-letters drowning in the sea.
Oh baby, doesn’t it matter: (oh) you’ve lost all what you feel ?
Can you feel my heart? Baby, don’t give up.
Can you feel my love tonight?

02. DON’T LET IT GET YOU DOWN

I’m crying through the night - a cry of loneliness
Strangers - side by side - looking for a kiss
You feel your heart is dead (oh) like a broken toy.
Oh blue eyes, don’t cry!
Your heart is out of tune - these tears can never dry
I’ll save your heart (babe) soon - oh baby, give a try
A sound of breaking hearts I hear again-again.
Oh, I’ll be there - take my helping hand.

Refrain:
Don’t let it get you down
It’s never too late
Don’t leave this heartbreak town
Feel the love we’ll make.
Harder you try, the more you get
Oh, your heartbeat is too sad
Come keep your heart just burning in the night for you and me.

You’re tired of being alone but time is on your side
You’ll make it on your own (baby) if you try
Oh, holding back the tears and mend a broken heart
Oh blue eyes, don’t cry!
I’ll never give you up - somewhere there’s a friend
When rain is in your heart - babe, don’t let it end
Oh, light the flame of love - oh, call me just again
Oh, I’ll be there - at the rainbow’s end.

REFRAIN

For you and me!

03. WHO WILL SAVE THE WORLD

Father, they have written of the point of no return
Soldiers - they were coming (oh, they’re coming to burn).
(Father said:)
“Oh boy, we need your hope to live.
Oh boy, you’ll have so much to give.
Oh boy, don’t let it get you down.

Who, baby, who will save the world? It’s not too late!
Who, baby, who will save the world, when heroes hesitate?”
I’m too young to die.
I’m too young to die.

Father, I’ve been looking through a rainbow of tears
Frontiers were so lonely - oh, they’re drowning in my fears.
(Father said:)
“Oh boy, I’m old enough to know
(oh boy) that it hurts to grow.
Oh boy, don’t let it get you down.

04. A TELEGRAM TO YOUR HEART

Oh, reach out to my dream
All the masquerade of loneliness
You fool, baby, it seems
words cannot express.
Oh, only a lonely heart can show
You were made for me - I know
It’s the time for our love.

A telegram to your heart, a telegram to your love:
“Need your kisses, baby, baby, need that stuff”
A telegram to your heart, a telegram to your mind:
“Need your kisses - always like the first-first time”
A telegram to your heart, a telegram to your soul
A telegram to your heart, a telegram to your soul

It’s started in heaven
I was lost in your lonely world
I’ll be (there) your raven
Oh, you’re gonna be my girl.
There must be more to life, take care
Our love survive. Oh, share
your love with me tonight.

05. IT’S CHRISTMAS

What do the lonely do on Christmas? Woman is a man’s best friend.
There are people in loneliness, girl, waiting for a helping hand.
There is no mountain (that’s high enough) heaven will send me.
You’re drowning in the sea of love, girl - never set you free.
I have a heart of sun, and you will never be alone.
We’ll have some days of fun, my love.

Refrain:
Oh babe, it’s Christmas, and I give you my heart
(oh, it’s Christmas) from the very first start.
Oh babe, it’s Christmas - Wish you a happy New Year!
Oh, it’s Christmas. Great for me to be here.

What do the lonely do on New Year? What do the lonely do?
I’ve been looking through your tears, babe - feel memories with you.
Dreams are nothing more than emotions, but they will come true.
Give me all your sweet devotions - babe, I’m missing you.
I have a heart of sun, and you will never be alone.
We’ll have some days of fun, my love.

REFRAIN

REFRAIN

06. DON’T LOSE MY NUMBER

Woman is a man’s best friend -
and I was crying in the night for love.
Baby, to the rainbow’s end
I will run for that sweet-sweet stuff.
Oh, side by side
I will give all my love and emotions.

Refrain:
Don’t lose my number, girl
I’m qualified for
Don’t lose my number, girl
I’m qualified for.
Don’t, don’t lose my number
I’m waiting for you
Don’t, don’t lose my number
I’m qualified for love.

Diamonds are forever (girl) -
save them for a rainy day.
I just wanna be your world -
there is nothing left for me to say.
Oh, eye to eye
I will give all my love and devotion.

REFRAIN (twice)

07. SLOW MOTION

My tears will never dry
Behind my painted smile
You are the nearest thing to heaven, girl.
This world is not my home
Love in a danger zone
Some hearts are better left unbroken, girl.

Refrain:
Slow motion - baby, hold on tight
Slow-slow motion - baby, deep inside
Slow-slow motion - baby, I got hooked on you
I know, it isn’t true.
Slow motion - baby, full of pride
Slow-slow motion - baby, I have cried
Slow-slow motion - baby, ’cause only love knows why
I know, I wanna die.

Good love can never die
Inside, my love’s alive
Take it off him - my babe, put it just on me.
Just when I needed you most
Oh babe, God only knows
I’m lost without your love, oh my baby.

REFRAIN

Slow motion, baby
Slow-slow motion, baby

08. LOCOMOTION TANGO

Love is a lie, girl, love is a mess
Telling these idiots of loneliness
Our love survive
Our love’s alive.
Letters are written, words are spoken
Some hearts are better left unbroken
Our love survive
Our love’s alive.
Little by little, step by step
We will kill the dirty heads
Heart to heart and side by side
Love will never hide.

Refrain:
Locomotion tango on a lonely rainbow
We will dancing, baby - don’t wait for heroes.
Locomotion tango on a lonely rainbow
We will dancing, baby, romancing, lady.
Locomotion in my heart
See you dancing in the darkness.
Locomotion - let us start
Let us dancing in the moonlight.

Baby, you’re waiting, baby, you cry
See all the fools (babe) with their lies
Our love survive
Our love’s alive.
What does it take to kill your love?
What does it pay to get that stuff?
Our love survive
Our love’s alive.
Little by little, step by step
We will kill the dirty heads
Heart to heart and side by side
Love will never hide.

REFRAIN (twice)

09. GOOD GIRLS GO TO HEAVEN

Good girls go to heaven
Good girls go to heaven

Maybe when the night will fall,
(baby) loneliness will call
Oh, call me, please call me.
Oh, your dreams will never lie
Just behind a painted smile
Just call me, please call me.
I’ll try meet you in rainbow drive
My heart is still alive
I have rainbow in my eyes.

Refrain:
Good girls go to heaven
Bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven
Bad girls are here and there.
Just come feel my love inside
Call me when you’re sad
There is no love to hide
What you see is what you get
Tonight

Oh, I’ll make your dreams come true
For a tango it takes two
Oh, call me, please call me.
I’m a prisoner of your heart
007 in the dark
Just call me, please call me.
A man, a child - oh, in my eyes
I’m hating all these lies
But rainbow is still alive.
