Tori Amos Total Eclipse of the Heart lyrics

Turn around, every now and then I get a little bit lonely
That 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

Every now and then I get a little bit nervous
That the best of all the years have gone by
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
Bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart, bright eyes

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

Every now and then I get a little bit angry
And I know I've got to get out and cry
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
Bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart, bright eyes

And I need you near tonight, and I need you more than ever
If you'll only hold me tight, we'll be holding on forever
And only be making it right 'cause we'll never be wrong

Together we can take it till the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
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, total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
Now there's only love in the dark
And nothing I can say, total eclipse of the heart

Total eclipse of the heart

Turn around, every now and then I know you'll never be the boy
You always wanted to be
Turn around, every now and then I know
You'll always be the only boy who wanted me to be as I am

Every now and then I know that there's no one in the universe
As magical and wondrous as you
Every now and then I know there's nothing any better
There's nothing that I just wouldn't do
Bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart
Bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

And I need you near tonight, and I need you more than ever
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 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
Nothing I can do, total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
Now there's only love in the dark
And 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 bright eyes
