Bonnie Tyler – Live-in World (Various Artists) lyrics

(Charley Foskett)
Producer for Bonnie: Charley Foskett
Recorded in 1986 for the charity album 'It's a Live-In World', Part of the anti-heroin project. Lyrics taken from careful listening.

Put an end to that long cold existence you've lived by
Let a warm and loving hand touch your pain
The part of you that is hurting, making you cry
When all the world looks like the devil in a 3-D frame

Pull down defences
Open up your heart
Don't build defences
'Cause they'll only fall apart

'Cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world

Alone and afraid and it's all inside
It starts breaking
And we cry from inside
But the help is denied once again
And your heart has grown cold
'Cause you've grown so old
Bones aching
You'll be a slave to that white-powered whore
'Til the dragon is slayed

'Cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world

Etc...repeat and fade...
