I wonder if you think of me
As I love you each day, yeah
I wonder if you listen to
The words I sing and what I say

They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flame, but not the fire
Bottled up inside, but can't come out

First love, you were my, first love
First love
First love

Friends say you ask of me
And talk of how we used to be, yeah
At times I wondered if I'd dare
Ring and tell you how I care

They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flame, but not the fire
'Round and 'round I keep on going
Like a spiral never slowing

First love, you were my, first love
First love
First love

They say that your first love never dies
You can put out the flame, but not the fire
Bottled up inside, but can't come out
There's nowhere to hide
I can't even show it

First love (you were my)
First love (you were my first)
First love (you were my first love)
First love

First love, you were my, first love
First love
First love

(First love), you were my (first love)
First love, you were my first love

If only you could see me (first love)
If only you could love me (first love)
If only you could hear me (first love)
Yeah...

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.
