Total Eclipse Of The Heart Lyrics By Bonnie Tyler

    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit lonely
    and you’re never coming ’round
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit tired
    of listening to the sound of my tears
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit nervous
    that the best of all the years have gone by
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit terrified
    and then i see the look in your eyes

    refrain
    turn around bright eyes
    every now and then i fall apart
    turn around bright eyes
    every now and then i fall apart

    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit restless
    and i dream of something wild
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit helpless
    and i’m lying like a child in your arms
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit angry
    and i know i’ve got to get out and cry
    turn around
    every now and then i get a little bit terrified
    but then i see the look in your eyes

    refrain
    turn around bright eyes
    every now and then i fall apart
    turn around 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 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

    post
    once upon a time i was falling in love
    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

    interlude
    turn around bright eyes
    turn around bright eyes

    turn around
    every now and then
    i know you’ll never be the boy
    you always wanted to be
    turn around
    but every now and then
    i know you’ll always be the only boy
    who wanted me the way that i am
    turn around
    every now and then
    i know there’s no one in the universe
    as magical and wondrous as you
    turn around
    every now and then
    i know there’s nothing any better
    there’s nothing that i just wouldn’t do

    refrain
    turn around bright eyes
    every now and then i fall apart
    turn around 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 all of the time
    i don’t know what to do
    i’m always in the dark
    living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
    i really need you tonight
    forever’s gonna start tonight
    forever’s gonna start tonight

    post
    once upon a time i was falling in love
    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
    a total eclipse of the heart
    a total eclipse of the heart

    turn around bright eyes
    turn around bright eyes
    turn around
