Air Supply

Songwriter: Graham Russell

Producer: Bernard Edwards

I don't need money and possessions
I don't need things to weigh me down
I don't need to be under suspicion
For all the things that never come around
All I need is you and your affection
To be a part of everything you do
To break thru a lost communication
To let me know that everything is true

CHORUS
Put love in your life, find it today and hold me tonight
You know there will always be me
There will always be you
Put love in your life, open your heart it won't be denied
The one you thought could not be
Is waiting for you

I don't need anxiety to hold me

In the name of something to embrace
I don't need society to scald me
To pin me down and slap me in the face
All I need is you and your affection
To be the judge and jury in my life
Searching for that moment of perfection
To let me know we surely are alive

CHORUS

The puzzled look the years of doubt
It all was meant to be
We can't escape the dreams we make
This feeling now just cannot wait
So share it with me

Air Supply are a soft rock duo formed in 1975. From 1980-1985 the band had a string of hits that charted well in the US, Canada, New Zealand and their homeland Australia.

After Graham Russell’s music was ignored by bandmates in two previous bands, he auditioned for and won a part as a chorus member in a Melbourne production of Jesus Christ Superstar. This is where he met and teamed up with Russell Hitchcock, who had missed the JCS auditions in Sydney – so he flew to Melbourne and landed a spot in the same chorus.

The two submitted a demo of two songs – “Love And Other Bruises” and “If You Knew Me” to CBS Records and got signed. The former went to #3 in Australia, so they assembled session musicians, released their self-titled debut album, and toured Australia.
