In 1984, she re-recorded this song in English as "99 Red Balloons".Nena was also the name of the band with whom she released the song. The re-recording of some of her old songs rekindled her career in 2002. In 2007, she co-founded Neue Schule Hamburg.
Gabriele Susanne Kerner was born on 24 March 1960 in Hagen, North Rhine-Westphalia, West Germany while her family lived in the nearby town of Breckerfeld. She spent the earliest part of her childhood in Breckerfeld and later lived in Hagen. She acquired her nickname, based on the Spanish word "nena", or "little girl", at the age of three, while on a vacation to Spain with her parents. In 1977 she left high school before graduation, and in the three following years she was trained as a goldsmith. [100 Prozent Nena, 2009. RTL]

Nena yo por tenerte daria lo que no fuera
Por abrazarte y perderme en tus caderas
Por esos ojos que me dicen que deseas como yo
Es que sin ti yo me siento un poco perdido
No aguanto las ganas de tenerte conmigo
Te hare sudar toda la noche
Asi que no digas que no (x2)
ya no lo pienses mi nena
yo se que tu me deseas
y poco a poco bandida
te toco y te desesperas
yo quiero verte desnuda
hacer miles de travesuras
quiero besarte, tocarte
llevarte hasta lo oscuro
estoy perdido, poco confundido
cuando yo te veo, altera mi sentidos
yo voy a pillarte, quiero yo agarrarte
ma no hay escapatoria, voy acorralarte
Nena yo por tenerte daria lo que no fuera
Por abrazarte y perderme en tus caderas
Por esos ojos que me dicen que deseas como yo
Es que sin ti yo me siento un poco perdido
No aguanto las ganas de tenerte conmigo
Te hare sudar toda la noche
Asi que no digas que no (x2)
Dejame Tocarte
Quiero desnudarte
conmigo vas a volar
yo te voy hacer ver soñar
se que te vas enchular
y vas a querer una noche mas
Por que estoy perdido, un poco confundido
cuando yo te veo, altera mi sentidos
yo voy a pillarte, quiero yo agarrarte
no hay escapatoria, voy acorralarte
Nena yo por tenerte daria lo que no fuera
Por abrazarte y perderme en tus caderas
Por esos ojos que me dicen que deseas como yo
Es que sin ti yo me siento un poco perdido
No aguanto las ganas de tenerte conmigo
Te hare sudar toda la noche
Asi que no digas que no (x2)
