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 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 year have gone by
Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified, I see the fucking look in your eye

Turnaround, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround, bright eyes
Fuckin' every now and then I fall apart

And I need you more tonight
I fucking need you more than ever
And if you're lonely 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, 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
Fuckin-ever's gonna start to-

Once upon a time I was falling in love
Now I'm fucking falling apart
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
Oh Jesus, once upon a time there was light in my life
Now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
Total eclipse of the heart

Total eclipse, total eclipse
Turnaround, bright eyes
Total eclipse of the heart
Total eclipse

    i hate the original song, this version is sooo much better. the extra "colorful metaphors" make the song, the only thing i dont like is the length, it could be longer....
