Total Eclipse Of The Heart

If light were dark
And dark were light
The Moon a black hole
In the blaze of night
A raven's wing
As bright as tin
Then you, my love
Would be darker than sin

(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit lonely
But I don't know what I miss

(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit desperate
And I wonder what it is I desire

(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 hear a voice

(Turn around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I hear

(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 curious
What it's like to be a woman and free

(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
But then I see you calling for me

(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
My love is like a shadow on you 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
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
There's nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

(Turn around)
Every now and then I think I better run away from you
Before it's too late

(Turn around)
But every now and then I know I must go when you lead me
I would go with you through the gates of hell

(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
And here's nothing that I just wouldn't do

(Turn around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I hear a voice

(Turn around, bright eyes)
Now I know I never had a choice

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
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 do
A total eclipse of the heart

There's nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

I've waiting for you
Since you've been born
I watched you secretly
But not for long
And since I know all your dreams
I understand what you need
And when I call you
You must go where I lead
Your dreams are so hungry
It's time now to feed
