(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
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
(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 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
(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)
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 (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
Nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time, I was falling in love
But now, I'm only falling apart
Nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
