Already in his youth, Frans Bauer wanted to become a singer after he was inspired by Julio Iglesias, Elvis Presley and Koos Alberts (a Dutch singer). Bauer's own singing career started in 1987 when he recorded his first single, "Ben Je Jong" (Are You Young), under supervision of Dutch producers Rudi Schreijenberg and Emile Hartkamp.
In January 1992 he met his later wife-to-be, Mariska van Rossenberg. He was a local celebrity before rising to national fame due to the national television show "All You Need Is love" in early 1992, where he was to choose two female fans for a date. In 1994 he had his first national hit with "Als Sterren Aan De Hemel Staan". In 1997 he conquered Germany with his album "Weil Ich Dich Liebe".
Frans Bauer's fame kept growing to the point where he had his own reality show called "De Bauers", in which his daily life, including his family life, was followed. Bauer has also designed clothing for the Vroom & Dreesmann retail chain, based in The Netherlands.
He has won several awards and honours in The Netherlands, including a knighthood ("Ridder in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau") due to his charitable work and the "Gouden Televizier-Ring" for the reality show that has been running on Dutch television the year previously.
In 2006 he was struck by an infection on his vocal cords. He recovered after surgery.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nog één keer samen dromen
De liefde gaat nooit meer over
Beloof me dat jij op me wacht
Amore amore goodbye
Nog één keer heel dicht bij me
Gebroken zijn nu twee harten
Verloren voor altijd alleen
Kus me kus me nog één keer
Geef me nog één keer een zoen
Tranen droog maar je tranen
'K Zou alles met jou overdoen
Amore amore goodbye
Nog één keer samen dromen
De liefde gaat nooit meer over
Beloof me dat jij op me wacht
Amore amore goodbye
Nog één keer heel dicht bij me
Gebroken zijn nu twee harten
Verloren voor altijd alleen
Dagen ik tel de dagen
Ooit wordt het weer net als toen
Dromen ik zal blijven dromen
'K Zou alles met jou overdoen
Amore amore goodbye
Nog één keer samen dromen
De liefde gaat nooit meer over
Beloof me dat jij op me wacht
Amore amore goodbye
Nog één keer heel dicht bij meGebroken zijn nu twee harten
Verloren voor altijd alleen
Verloren voor altijd alleen
