Total Eclipse of the Heart
Bonnie Tyler
Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes 
Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

And I need you now tonight 
And I need you more than ever 
And if you only hold me tight 
We'll be holding on forever 

And we'll only be making it right 
Cause we'll never be wrong together 
We can take it to the end of the line 
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time 

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark 
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks 
I really need you tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 

Once upon a time I was falling in love 
But now I'm only falling apart 
There's nothing I can do 
A total eclipse of the heart 

Once upon a time there was light in my life 
But now there's only love in the dark 
Nothing I can say 
A total eclipse of the heart 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying  like a child in your arms 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've  got to get out and cry 

Turnaround

Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes 

Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

And I need you now tonight 
And I need you more than ever 
And if you only hold me tight 
We'll be holding on forever 

And we'll only be making it right 
Cause we'll never be wrong together 
We can take it to the end of the line 
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time 

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark 
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks 
I really need you tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 

Once upon a time I was falling in love 
But now I'm only falling apart 
There's nothing I can do 
A total eclipse of the heart 

Once upon a time there was light in my life 
But now there's only love in the dark 
Nothing I can say 
A total eclipse of the heart 

Turnaround bright eyes 
Turnaround bright eyes 
Turnaround

Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be 

Turnaround

Every now then I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am 

Turnaround

Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you 

Turnaround

Every now and then I know there's nothing any better and there's nothing that I just wouldn't do 

Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

Turnaround bright eyes

Every now and then I fall apart 

And I need you now tonight 
And I need you more than ever 
And if you'll only hold me tight 
We'll be holding on forever 

And we'll only be making it right 
Cause we'll never be wrong together 
We can take it to the end of the line 
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time 

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark 
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks 
I really need you tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 
Forever's gonna start tonight 

Once upon a time I was falling in love 
But now I'm only falling apart 
Nothing I can do 
A total eclipse of the heart 

Once upon a time there was light in my life 
But now there's only love in the dark 
Nothing I can say 
A total eclipse of the heart
