Total Eclipse Of The Heart Lyrics

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 my years have gone by
Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified I see the fuckin look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, well fuckin every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
I fuckin 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
Shit no I don't know what to do I'm always in the dark
Living in a powder keg and giving off sparks ah
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forfuckinever's gonna start to...

Once upon a time I was falling in love
Now I'm fuckin falling apart
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
Well jesus once upon a time there was light in my life
Now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
(Total eclipse of the...10x)

Turnaround Bright Eyes
Turnaround
Turnaround Bright Eyes
Shit turnaround

Total eclipse of the heart
Total Eclipse!
