Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins on June 8, 1951 in Skewen, Neath) is a Welsh singer. Born into a large working-class family of six children, her father worked as a miner while her mother, an opera fan, shared her love of music with her children. Influenced by the music of Janis Joplin and Tina Turner, as a teen she sang with a group called "Bobby Wayne and the Dixies," following which she formed her own band, calling it Imagination. Adopting different stage names until settling on Bonnie Tyler, for nearly a decade she and her band performed at pubs and nightclubs all over South Wales. In 1975 Bonnie Tyler recorded her first single for RCA Records called "My My Honeycomb" that failed to make the charts.

Goodbye To The Island Lyrics
Bonnie Tyler
(ronnie scott/ steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: hugh murphy/ ronnie scott/ steve wolfe
**goodbye to the island
Hello to the rain
Its gone like a dream in the night
And it wont be back again
Goodbye to the island
Where our bodies touched
Goodbye to a little bit of heaven
And I miss you so much
*(oh) why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way
Why love did you treat me this way
A bed it is an island
A world apart
Soft words in the middle of the night
Straight from the heart
Two heads on a pillow
So warm, so close
Goodbye to the island
Where, where it mattered the most
*repeat
**repeat
*repeat and fade
