Bonnie Tyler

Songwriter: Kiki Dee Jeff Lynne

Producer: Jeff Lynne

I'm living in another time another place
I knew you then
It used to be a different world
And now I start to live again
A sight of heaven in a grain of sand
Leading me on taking me by the hand

Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart

I see you in another life
There's someone else that I didn't know
There's someone else that I don't know
It used to hurt me deep inside
I had to learn to let you go
I thought that happiness was by your side
I didn't know that it was here in me
And still alive

Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart

Time mends a broken heart
Time mends a broken heart
Love tears it all apart
But time mends a broken heart

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.
