Ocean...Ocean...

In the darkness of nowhere
There's nothing at all
And I feel like I've been here too long
Shadows and teardrops fading away
And my heart is crying for love

Far from those moments
When my eyes were still closed
And my heartbeat was longing for more
Way over mountains, higher than high
I could feel the breeze from below

Like an Ocean...
Like an Ocean...

Now tell me your secrets
Come closer and whisper
I feel like I've seen you before
There's no more illusions
No more escapes
Cause I'm tired of asking for more
Seems like a lifetime fading away
And I'm lost in an Ocean of Love
I'm reaching and holding onto my dreams
Cause I'm not alone anymore

Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high
Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high
Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high
Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high

Spoken:
Far from those moments
When my eyes were still closed
Way over mountains
Higher than high
I could feel the breeze from below
It's like an Ocean, Ocean...Heeeyehhh

Like An Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high
Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high

Like An Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high
Like an Ocean...
Way over mountains higher than high

Repeat & Fade

Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins) was born on June 8, 1951 in Skewen, Wales. She was one of the most famous singers in the 80’s and is known for her noticeably rough and husky vocals.

Her first single, charting at #9 in her home country, “Lost In France,” put her in the public eye. After a bit of silence throughout the late 70s and early 80s, her best-selling and best-performing single on the charts of all time, “Total Eclipse of The Heart,” was released. Her 5th album, Faster Than The Speed of Night, also topped the charts in a few countries possibly because it contained Total Eclipse. Another notable song, “Holding Out for a Hero,” was released one year later for the Footloose soundtrack.

Tyler married Robert Sullivan, an Olympic judo contestant in 1973. They have no children. As of 2018, she is 66 years old and still in good health.
