Song Lyrics

(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
(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 going to start tonight
Forever's going to start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
Now I'm only falling apart
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
(ah ah ah)
And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
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
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's going to start tonight
Forever's going to start tonight

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

A total eclipse of the heart
