Bonnie Tyler

Songwriter: Amy Wadge Martie Maguire

Producer: David Mackay

Give me your heart and your soul
Give me no reason to go
Tell me your secrets
Tell me you lies
And I'll act like I don't know

I know where you go in the night
The truth it'll show in the light
Tell me your secrets
Tell me you lies
And I'll act like it's alright

I know that you've got demons
But I'll deal with them in time

'Cause I'm bad for loving you
But you're so glad I do
Bad for wanting you
But you want me to
Be good at loving you
It's sad for me
So bad for me
I do

So, kiss her goodbye when you go
'Cause I'll be here waiting at home
Ah, let down your guard
Come as you are
'Cause this girl don't need no show

Oh, god knows I'm better than this
But there's something about you I miss
Sound the alarm every second you charm
When it's my lips that you kiss

I know that you've got demons
But I'll deal with them in time

'Cause I'm bad for loving you
But you're so glad I do
Bad for wanting you
But you want me to
Be good at loving you
It's sad for me
So bad for me
I do

Well, I know everything
Every inch of your skin
Every mark, every scar
Of who you are

And I know every lie
Every single little lie
That you tell me
Again and again

That I'm bad for loving you
But you're so glad I do
Bad for wanting you
But you want me to
Be good at loving you

It's sad for me
So bad for me
I'm bad for loving you
But you're so glad I do

Bad for wanting you
But you want me to
Be good at loving you
So bad for me
So bad for me
It's sad for me
So bad for me
I do

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.
