Lyrics for Song: Total Eclipse Of The Heart
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Beth
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 listenin' 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'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 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
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'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 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 say, a total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart

About Total Eclipse Of The Heart
Beth's "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" stands as a defining anthem of 1980s pop-rock, blending her signature raw vocal delivery with a driving, synth-heavy production style. Originally recorded in 1989, the track became a global phenomenon after its inclusion on the soundtrack to the film *Dirty Dancing*, where it was performed by the character Laura. The song's infectious rhythm and emotional intensity propelled it to number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, cementing its status as a modern classic.
