[Pre-Chorus 1]
Rest your head on the Earth
For to me, you are worth
More than life can give
And I will love no other

[Verse 1]
For as long as I live
And beyond, I'll be with you
Can you trust in me?
Can I be your lover?

[Chorus]
If the sun could not burn
If the world should not turn
I would still have you
Always to discover
Can you trust in me?
Can I be your lover?

[Pre-Chorus 1]

[Verse 2]
Can I be, can I be
Will you lie next to me?
Will you be my love?
Can I be your lover?
Will you take my hand?
Can I be your lover?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Rest your head on the earth
For to me, you are worth
More than life can give
And I will love no other
Can you trust in me?
Can I be your lover?

[Verse 3]
Gone is the reason and why
Ever more, lost am I
Till someday, but who knows where or when?

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Just a word, just a day
Can I be, can I be
Will you lie next to me?
Will you take my hand?
Can I be your lover?
Will you trust in me?
Can I be your lover?
Can I be, can I be
Will you lie next to me?
Will you be my love?
Can I be your lover?
Will you take my hand?
Can I be your lover?

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.
