Total Eclipse Of The Heart
Beth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
CHORUS
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
CHORUS - - repeat
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
Beth's song "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" is a powerful expression of longing, heartbreak, and the desire for connection. The opening verse speaks of the singer's loneliness and the absence of someone they crave: "Turn around, Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round." The next three lines express the singer's feelings of frustration, anxiety, and fear that time is running out: "Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listenin' to the sound of my tears... I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by... I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes."
The chorus reveals the depth of the singer's need for connection and intimacy, and the hopelessness they feel without it: "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)." The final lines of the song depict the singer's despair, and their sense that they are lost and alone: "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."
