Total Eclipse Of The Heart (Bonnie Tyler Cover) Lyrics
Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming around
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 the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround 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'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
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
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing that I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround 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'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
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
And now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
And now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Total eclipse of the heart
And now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Total eclipse of the heart
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 I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
little bit lonely and you're never coming around

And now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Total eclipse of the heart
And now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Now there's only love in the dark..
Total eclipse of the heart
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

I think it's pretty literal. She was sad, depressed, and scared until she fell in love with a man who gave her hope. Then he left her for some reason, which made her feel hopeless again. She desperately wants him to come back to her because he was the only source of happiness in her life.
Basically, her heart is broken. I think the lyrics are supposed to portray her wishing that he'd come back so she could be happy again.
The line "total eclipse of the heart" is probably referencing how her heart, or love, is invisible to him. Also, like a total eclipse, it is controlled by nature and fate, and there is nothing she can do to change it.
