Biography

American musician and actor, born September 27, 1947, Dallas - Texas, died January 20, 2022 in Nashville, Tennessee, noted for the 'Bat Out of Hell' album trilogy consisting of "Bat Out of Hell", "Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell" and "Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster is Loose". "Bat Out of Hell" has sold more than 43 million copies worldwide. After 35 years, it still sells an estimated 200,000 copies annually and stayed on the charts for over nine years, making it one of the best selling albums of all time. Although he enjoyed success with "Bat Out of Hell" and "Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell" and earned a Grammy Award for 'Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance' for the song "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" on the latter album, Meat Loaf experienced some initial difficulty establishing a steady career within his native US. However, he retained iconic status and popularity in Europe, especially the UK, where he ranks 23rd for the number of weeks overall spent on the charts as of 2006. He ranked 96th on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock." He was one of the best-selling artists of all time, with worldwide sales of more than 80 million copies. He has also appeared in over 50 movies and television shows, sometimes as himself or as characters resembling his stage persona. His most notable roles included 'Eddie' in the American premiere of "The Rocky Horror Show" and "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and Robert "Bob" Paulson in Fight Club. In 2001, Aday officially changed his first name from Marvin to Michael.

LYRICS

Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking...
I can still see you standing there
Midnight wind blowin' thorough your hair, remember
Kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever

Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scen has changed, now I'm without you, well you just
Walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over

It was almost like a movie, the way you said goodbye
You must have spent a lot of time, rehearsing each and every line

Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye, not a dry eye in the house

The greatest story was you and me
We had it all, we had everything, but now the -
Story's done, it's just history
The last act is over

Your every line had the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my whole world around
But then the lights cam up and my world crashed down
End of show - It's over

It was almost like a movie, those nights we touched the stars
Time stood still for you and I, now it's sad enough to make you cry

Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye, not a dry eye in the house

Act One: The story's just begun
Act Two: I fell in love with you
Act Three: Knew it was meant to be
Act Four: You don't love me no more...

Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye, not a dry eye in the house

Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking, breaking...

Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house
Not a dry eye in the house
