Rocks and Honey is the
sixteenth studio album by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, first released by ZYX
Music on March 8, 2013. Eight years since Wings was released in 2005, this was
the longest gap between album releases in Tyler's career, and is the first of
her studio albums to chart in the United Kingdom since 1988. With tracks
written by Nashville-based songwriters such as Frank J. Myers, Desmond Child, Brett
James and Beth Hart, the album consists of a number of country songs
reminiscent to Tyler's country albums from the 1970s with elements of rock.
The album received
generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised Tyler's vocals as
well as the album's consistency. Rocks and Honey charted in Europe, reaching
number 28 in Denmark, number 52 in the UK and number 59 in Germany and
Switzerland. Tyler embarked on her South Africa Tour 2013 following the
Eurovision Song Contest. The single "Believe in Me" represented the United
Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 in Malmö, Sweden on 18 May 2013, and
has charted in the UK Singles Chart at number 93. The album was named in
reference to the contrast between the voices of Tyler and duet partner Vince
Gill on the track "What You Need From Me". The follow-up singles,
"This Is Gonna Hurt" and "Love Is the Knife", were released
in August and September 2013 respectively.
You say you
don't believe in signs from up above
And you
laugh at the thought
Of putting
your faith in stuff like love
You never
see the rainbow, you just curse the rain
You say you
wanna believe
But it's
just not worth the pain today
But that's
all fine if that's how you want it to be
But if
you're feeling alone and afraid
And you
can't breathe
Believe in
me, yeah
Believe in
me, yeah
Believe in
The way I
look at you
And stand
beside you
The way I
speak the truth
I'd never
lie to you
If you'd
just believe in the things
That your
eyes can't see
Believe in
me
You come and
you go and there's never no compromise
That's why
The seconds
and the minutes of the days of your life
Go crawling
by
But that's
all fine if that's how you want it to be
But if
you're feeling alone and afraid
And you can't
breathe
Believe in
me, yeah
Believe in
The way I
look at you
And stand
beside you
The way I
speak the truth
I'd never
lie to you
If you'd
just believe in the things
That your
eyes can't see
Believe in
me
What ya
gonna do when your ship is sinking
And you're
crying out for help and just the seagull's listening
In the dark
of the night, in the middle of the fight
When you're
reaching out for something and there's nothing
Believe in
me, yeah
Believe in
The way I
look at you
And stand
beside you
The way I
speak the truth
I'd never
lie to you
If you'd
just believe in the things
That your
eyes can't see
Believe in
me
