West Germany, 1988. Yasemin and Jan are in the same judo club. Yasemin is a modern young Turkish woman. Jan is an old-fashioned womaniser. When his friends bet he cannot have Yasemin he sees this as a welcome challenge. He plays his best tricks on Yasemin who eventually takes to him because she is led to believe he was no macho but a really modern nice guy. That way she does play his heartstrings. He feels ashamed to have approached her just to impress his friends. Unfortunately this truth is eventually disclosed to her, and when it is, he is dismayed by the harm he has done. However, since this is a classic romantic movie, a happy end is inevitable after all.
I see the couples are walkin` by feel like I
Don`t wanna be alone today
So glad no one can see what I hide deep inside
How it feels to be
The girl who never gets the right guy tell me why
When there`s so much I`ve got to give
I wake up reaching out in the night
Ready to hold him tight
`Til I realize
That nobody is there
When will it be me?
When will I be the one
Somebody`s dreamin' of?
When`s it gonna be?
When will I find my heart
Lyin` inside the arms
That never let me go?
I`d really like to know
When will it be me?
My friends seem to have all the love
Feels like love knocks on their door and walks right in
I know that I am worthy of what I`ve been wishin' for (wishin' for)
I can`t wait no more (wait no more)
Love`s nowhere to be found
When will it be me?
When will I be the one
Somebody`s dreamin' of?
Tell me
When`s it gonna be?
When will I find my heart
Lyin` inside the arms
That never lets me go?
I`d really like to know
(When will it be?)
Feeling his tender touch (Lying in his arms)
Talkin` bout forever together
Givin` him all my love
That`s been tryin' to break free
Don`t wanna be alone no more
I`m tellin' you what I need
I want someone who loves me for me
And when will it be?
Wonder when it will be me?
When will it be me?
When will I be the one
Somebody`s dreamin' of? (The one he's dreamin of)
When`s it gonna be?
When will I find my heart
Lyin` inside the arms
When will it be me?
When will I be the one
Somebody`s dreamin' of?
When will I find my heart
Lyin` inside the arms
I ask myself
