(graham russell/guy allison)

Oh where did it begin
This desire in my heart
Born from out of the wind
Left alone in the dark
Sow the desolate plain
New horizons to share
All my eden divide
Generations to share

(chorus)
Don't stop, it feels so familiar

Stay here and show me a new sunrise
You know I want you
Can the innocent survive
And if I love you, can we touch to stay alive
For every reason, I will do the best I can
Daytime hunger, night is woman
Primitive man
All the future is passed
With a wave of my hand
All direction is cast
From the woman and man

(chorus)

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.
