             Lyrics of Diamant (German)

     

    Glanz in den Augen
    Du siehst mich nich'
    Wie lange muss ich graben
    Bis du ein Wort mit mir sprichst?
    Du bist vollendet (Vollendet)
    Heller als Licht (Heller als Licht)
    Bist nicht wie die Ander'n
    Du bist ein Juwel für mich
     
    Ich brauch' keinen Ring
    Keinen Luxus, kein Bling-bling
    Doch ich hab' nur dich im Sinn
    Und ich folg' meinem Instinkt
     
    Du bist hundertzehn Karat
    Deine wunderschöne Art
    An dich kommt niemand ran
    Du bist ein Diamant
    Hundertzehn Karat
    Und mein Herz schlägt Alarm
    Ich will dich an der Hand
    Wie ein Diamant
     
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Strahl mich an
     
    Sind wir Zuhause
    Pack' ich dich aus wie MonCherie
    Liebe liegt so schwer im Bauch
    Und jeder Gangster will's ohne Braut
    Ich pass auf, dass kein Bandit dich jemals klaut
     
    Ich brauch' keinen Ring
    Keinen Luxus, kein Bling-bling
    Doch ich hab' nur dich im Sinn
    Und ich folg' meinem Instinkt
     
    Du bist hundertzehn Karat
    Deine wunderschöne Art
    An dich kommt niemand ran
    Du bist ein Diamant
    Hundertzehn Karat
    Und mein Herz schlägt Alarm
    Ich will dich an der Hand
    Wie ein Diamant
     
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Strahl mich an
     
    Neben dir komm' ich auf mein Leben wieder klar
    Nichts ist mehr wie es früher war
    Neben mir liegt ein Diamant
     
    Du bist hundertzehn Karat
    Deine wunderschöne Art
    An dich kommt niemand ran
    Du bist ein Diamant
    Hundertzehn Karat
    Und mein Herz schlägt Alarm
    Ich will dich an der Hand
    Wie ein Diamant
     
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Strahl mich an
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Wie ein Diamant
    Strahl mich an

    Diamond
     
    Shine in the eyes
    You don't see me
    How long do I have to dig?
    Until you speak a word to me?
    You are perfect (perfect)
    Brighter than light (brighter than light)
    You are not like the others
    You are a jewel to me
     
    I don't need a ring
    No luxury, no bling-bling
    But I only have you in mind
    And I follow my instinct
     
    You are a hundred and ten carats
    Your wonderful kind
    Nobody can get close to you
    You are a diamond
    A hundred and ten carats
    And my heart sounds the alarm
    I want you on the hand
    Like a diamond
     
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Shine at me
     
    If we are at home
    I'll unpack you like a MonCherie1
    Love lies so heavy in the stomach
    And every gangster without a bride wants it
    I'll make sure no bandit ever steals you
     
    I don't need a ring
    No luxury, no bling-bling
    But I only have you in mind
    And I follow my instinct
     
    You are a hundred and ten carats
    Your wonderful kind
    Nobody can get close to you
    You are a diamond
    A hundred and ten carats
    And my heart sounds the alarm
    I want you on the hand
    Like a diamond
     
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Shine at me
     
    By your side I can get on with my life
    Nothing is as it used to be
    There is a diamond next to me
     
    You are a hundred and ten carats
    Your wonderful kind
    Nobody can get close to you
    You are a diamond
    A hundred and ten carats
    And my heart sounds the alarm
    I want you on the hand
    Like a diamond
     
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Shine at me
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Like a diamond
    Shine at me
