Angie McMahon - Total Eclipse of the Heart

To Rate
Verse 1
(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

verse 2
(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

chorus
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-chorus
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

verse 3
(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

chorus
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-chorus
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
A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
