Damn these tears here on my face
Wish they'd just wash away but they just keep on running
Damn this pain weighing on my chest
Feels like it steals my breath
Like a midnight train it just keeps coming
I'm stuck on the tracks
There ain't no turning back

So why do I still love you
And where do I go from here
I don't know, so tell me
Why do I keep trying
When it's all over but the crying

Guess I should've seen the warning signs
I think about the little luck in your eyes
Before I watch your tail lights driving
Slowly away, there's nothing left to do or say

So why do I still love you
And where do I go from here
I don't know, so tell me
Why do I keep trying
When it's all over but the crying

Dying, trying to find a way to let you go

So why do I still love you
And where do I go from here
I don't know
Why do I keep trying when it's all over but the crying
It's all over but the crying
Crying

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.
