‘Bonnie und Clyde’ – This is a reference to Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Chestnut Barrow, who were an American criminal couple known for their bank robberies throughout the Central United States.
‘nach Hause’ and ‘zu Hause’ – These phrases mean ‘towards home’ and ‘at home’, respectively. You might wonder though, why ‘Haus’ has an additional ‘e’ at the end. This is due to a now largely archaic rule where an ‘-e’ ending was added to certain masc and neuter nouns in the dative case. It survives today almost exclusively in set phrases such as here in ‘zu Hause’, ‘im Zuge’ meaning ‘in the course of’, and ‘am Tage’ meaning ‘during the day’. It will also be seen occasionally in formal prose, poetry, and song lyrics.
‘Kraft tanken’ – This phrase means ‘to recharge one’s batteries’. It translates literally as ‘to refuel strength/energy’.
‘etwas in Kauf nehmen’ – This phrase means ‘to put up with something’, ‘to accept something’, ‘to concede something’, or ‘to condone something’. It would translate literally as something like ‘to take something in purchase’.
‘Hawaii’ – This is a U.S. state located in the Pacific Ocean.
‘am liebsten’ – This phrase means ‘best’. It is the superlative form of the adjective ‘lieb’ meaning ‘kind’, ‘nice’, ‘sweet’, ‘lovely’, ‘good’, ‘dear’ or ‘beloved’.
‘zu zweit’ – This phrase means ‘in pairs’. It would translate literally as ‘in second’.

Lyrics with Translation
Songs in any language often leave room for multiple interpretations. Following is my interpretation of the song lyrics.
Mit Dir With You
[Chorus] Ich bin nur komplett mit dir I’m just complete with you Ich teile mein Bett mit dir I share my bed with you Hab’ so gerne Sex mit dir I really like having sex with you Am besten jetzt und hier Preferably now and here Ich würd alles teil’n mit dir I would share everything with you Bin so gern allein mit dir I really like to be alone with you Baby, ich wein’ mit dir Baby, I cry with you Also bleib bei mir So stay with me
[Verse 1] Ich lache mit dir, ich leide mit dir I laugh with you, I suffer with you Komm’ morgens nach Hause, zähl’ Scheine mit dir Come home in the morning, count bills with you Betrunken mit dir, am Ende mit dir Drunk with you, in the end with you Herz repariert, jetzt schenk’ ich es dir Heart repaired, now I’ll give it to you Am Boden mit dir, geflogen mit dir On the ground with you, flying with you Es ist so viel passiert So much has happened Durch die Hölle mit dir Through hell with you Bekämpfe mit dir die Dämonen in mir Fight the demons in me with you Ich werd’ besser durch dich, ich lerne von dir I get better through you, I learn from you Ich lebe mit dir und ich sterbe mit dir I live with you and I die with you Zu Hause mit dir, um die Erde mit dir At home with you, around the world with you Mit dir versetze ich Berge With you I move mountains Verprass’ hundert Riesen mit dir Spend a hundred grand with you Das Leben genießen mit dir Enjoy life with you Du warst bei mir, da war niemand mehr hier You were with me, there was no one here anymore Bin ich weg, trägst du ein T-Shirt von mir When I’m gone, you wear one of my T-shirts

[Verse 2] Ich bleibe wach mit dir, mach’s mit dir I stay awake with you, do it with you Ich versteh’ nicht, was du machst mit mir I don’t understand what you’re doing to me Baue den Kindern ein Dach mit dir Build a roof for the kids with you Tanke wieder neue Kraft mit dir Recharge your batteries with you Gegenwind nehm’ ich in Kauf I put up with headwinds Hauptsache, ich wache neben dir auf The main thing is that I wake up next to you Baby, für dich würd ich alles riskier’n Baby, I’d risk everything for you Auch, wenn ich am Ende alles verlier’ Even if I lose everything in the end Ich liege nackig am Strand auf Hawaii mit dir I lie naked on the beach in Hawaii with you Wenn niemand uns seh’n kann, dann zeig’ ich’s dir If no one can see us, then I’ll show it to you Wo es uns hintreibt, da bleiben wir Where it drives us, we’ll stay Mach’ es wie Bonnie und Clyde mit dir I do it like Bonnie and Clyde with you Ich versteh’ auch, wenn du zweifelst hier I also understand if you doubt here Geht das hier und da viel zu weit mit mir Does this go way too far here and there with me? Doch ich bin am liebsten zu zweit mit dir But I am best in a couple with you Und high mit dir, bitte bleib mit mir And high with you, please stay with me
[Chorus] Ich bin nur komplett mit dir I’m just complete with you Ich teile mein Bett mit dir I share my bed with you Hab’ so gerne Sex mit dir I really like having sex with you Am besten jetzt und hier Preferably now and here Ich würd alles teil’n mit dir I would share everything with you Bin so gern allein mit dir I really like to be alone with you Baby, ich wein’ mit dir Baby, I cry with you Also bleib bei mir So stay with me

Ich teile mein Bett mit dir
Komm’ morgens nach Hause, zähl’ Scheine mit dir
Durch die Hölle mit dir
Bekämpfe mit dir die Dämonen in mir
Ich werd’ besser durch dich, ich lerne von dir
Zu Hause mit dir, um die Erde mit dir
Mit dir versetze ich Berge
Verprass’ hundert Riesen mit dir
Das Leben genießen mit dir
Bin ich weg, trägst du ein T-Shirt von mir
Dative:
… mit dir
Also bleib bei mir
Komm’ morgens nach Hause, zähl’ Scheine mit dir
Betrunken mit dir, am Ende mit dir
Am Boden mit dir, geflogen mit dir
Ich werd’ besser durch dich, ich lerne von dir
Zu Hause mit dir, um die Erde mit dir
Bin ich weg, trägst du ein T-Shirt von mir
Ich versteh’ nicht, was du machst mit mir
Irregular:

Ich bin nur komplett mit dir
Bin so gern allein mit dir
