(Schlager)
Schlager (German Schlager, literally "hitter" or, more loosely translated, "a hit") is a style of popular music that is prevalent in northern Europe, in particular Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Scandinavia, Latvia and Lithuania, but also to a lesser extent in France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Typical schlager tracks are either sweet, highly sentimental ballads with a simple, catchy melody or light, pleasant, throwaway pop tunes. Its lyrics are typically centered around love and relationships, and feelings. The northern variant of schlager, most notably in Finland, has taken elements from Nordic and Slavic folk songs, with texts tending towards melancholia and elegiac themes.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Träume zu mir die sagen
Deine Gedanken sind bei mir
Der Wind geht auf die Reise
Und er singt dir ganz leise
Die Worte die mein Herz erfand
Und die ich noch nie zuvor gekannt
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
My Baby na na na na na na na na
Ein Stern zeigt mir das Land
In dem ich Hand in Hand
Den Weg der Zukunft mit dir geh‘
Wenn Träume auch verwehen
Mein Wunsch bleibt doch bestehen
Das du zu mir kommst und mir sagst
Dass du mich genauso gerne magst
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
My Baby na na na na na na na na
My Baby na na na na na na na na
Worte die mein Herz erfand
Und die ich noch nie zuvor gekannt
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
My Baby na na na na na na na na
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you
The lyrics of Wolfgang Petry's song "Baby I Love You" express the deep affection and longing the singer has for someone.

The wind becomes a messenger, singing the words that the singer's heart has created but has never known before. This suggests that the singer has discovered new emotions and feelings since meeting this person.
The chorus, with its repetitive lines of "Baby I love you," emphasize the intensity of the singer's love and the desire to express it. The mention of a star showing them the path towards the future signifies hope and a shared journey. Even if dreams fade away, the singer's wish remains the same - for the other person to come to them and confess that they feel the same amount of love.
