Air Supply

Songwriter: Graham Russell

Producer: Bernard Edwards

I remember an evening so long
How your innocence sang
And the notes made me shiver inside
Like your honesty can
You asked me to please explain some things that seemed new
What was it that felt like pain, and cuts in two

CHORUS
You're only in love, only in love
Where life is new and dreams come true
You're only in love, only in love
To rise and fall and wait as we learn from it all

When conscience pulls you away and your destiny calls
Just follow your heart all the way, you'll never need more
More than the burning light when evening must die
You'll never forget this night, or wonder why

CHORUS

You thought that everything was just a lie
Now, after so much time, don't let the secret pass you by

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.
