BONNIE TYLER – Tyre Tracks and Broken Hearts (live)

“Tyre tracks and broken hearts” is one of Bonnie Tyler’s major career hits. The song was written by Jim Steinman and Andrew Lloyd Webber and originally recorded for the concept album for the 1996 musical Whistle Down the Wind. Tyler performed the song live at Webber’s 50th birthday celebration at the Royal Albert Hall in London, 1998.

Another aimless day, another useless night I want peroxide hair, I want some neon light I got a new life waiting, I can’t wait to begin it The thing that gets me down, being young in this town Is there’s no future in it

I want a fine perfume, how ’bout a blue corvette? If there’s a slower death than living here and now They haven’t found it yet I need a man who knows what I’m really worth And I don’t give a damn about life after death But I gotta get some proof that there’s a life after birth

Tire tracks and broken hearts, that’s all we’re leaving behind It doesn’t matter what we lose, it only matters what we’re going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let’s get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast

I want a push-up bra, I want some satin sheets Give me some real rich food, I want some succulent sweets I want you by my side, you’ll be all my own I don’t know what I want half the time, but I know know That I don’t want to spend another minute alone

Tire tracks and broken hearts, that’s all we’re leaving behind It doesn’t matter what we lose, it only matters what we’re going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let’s get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast

Those good girls never know what they’re missing But us bad girls almost always do And what we’re missing most are the real good times I want them bad and I want them now

I was born going faster than the limits allow I want it bad and I want it now We were born going faster than the limits allow Faster than the limits allow Right here, Right now!

Tire tracks and broken hearts, that’s all we’re leaving behind It doesn’t matter what we lose, it only matters what we’re going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let’s get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast

I wanna show you what I want you to do Where and when and how I want it bad and I want it now We were born going faster than the limits allow

I wanna show you what I want you to do Where and when and how I want it bad and I want it now We were born going faster than the limits allow

Tire tracks and broken hearts, that’s all we’re leaving behind It doesn’t matter what we lose, it only matters what we’re going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let’s get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast
