Total Eclipse of the Heart

Total Eclipse of the Heart


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 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

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but 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
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

INSTRUMENTAL

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes

Turnaround, Every now that I know you’ll never be the boy you always wanted to be
Turnaround, Every now and then I know that you’ll always be the only boy that wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, Every now and then I know that there’s no one in the universe as magical and wonderful as you
Turnaround, Every now and then I know there’s nothing any better 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
Well 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
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
A total eclipse of the heart

Turn around bright eyes
Turn around bright eyes
Turn around

Turtle Blues

Turtle Blues


(Janis Joplin)
Producer for Bonnie: Desmond Child

I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one man no good
I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one man no good
I just treats 'em like I wants to
Never ever treats 'em honey, like I should

Oh lord I once had a daddy
He said he'd give me everything in sight
Once had a daddy
Said he'd give me everything in sight
I said Hon, I want the sunshine
And take the stars out of the night

I ain't the kind of woman
Who'd make your life a bed of ease
I'm not the kind of woman
To make your life a bed of ease
Yeah, but if you just wanna go out drinkin', honey
Invite me along please

I guess I'm just like a turtle
Hidin' underneath his horny shell
Just like a turtle
Hidin' underneath his horny shell
But you know I'm very well protected
I know this doggone life too well

Oh, they call me mean, people call me evil
I'm not the kind of woman you can mess around
They call me mean, people call me evil
I'm not the kind of woman you can mess around
But I'm gonna take good care of Bonnie, yeah
There ain't no one gonna talk me down...

Two Out of Three Ain't Bad

Two Out of Three Ain't Bad


(Jim Steinman)
Producer for Bonnie: Jim Steinman

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here

And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here

I poured it on and I poured it out
I tried to show you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears
And all I can do is keep on telling you

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad

You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no Coupe de Ville hiding at the bottom
Of a cracker jack box

I can't lie
I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not
No matter how hard I try
I'll never be able
To give you something
Something that I just haven't got

Well there's only one boy that I will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I'll never get him out of my head
He never loved me back
Ooh I know

Well I remember how he left me on a stormy night
He kissed me and got out of our bed
And I pleaded and I begged him not to walk out that door
He packed his bags and turned away
And he kept on telling me
He kept on telling me
He kept on telling me

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad

Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here
I keep on telling you
I keep on telling you
I keep on telling you

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad

I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause two out of three ain't bad

We Can Start Here

We Can Start Here


(Maire Brennan/ Dennis Wood)
Producer for Bonnie: Jimmy Smyth

Drifting stars above the high trees
Recognise, see it's own destiny
And all the reasons to believe
Our future from tonight is through
I'm talking to you...

I know you feel the same way
We know the game we we could play
You know there's no turning back
We can start here....

Ocean sounds below the high seas
Understand, listen to how we feel
It's the circle of our dreams
Touch me now or set me free
I'm talking to you...

I know you feel the same way
We know the game we we could play
You know there's no turning back
We can start here...

The fire in our hearts
We have found this perfect glow
I'm talking to you...

I know you feel the same way
We know the game we we could play
You know there's no turning back
We can start here...

I know you feel the same way
We know the game we we could play
You know there's no turning back
We can start here...

I know you feel the same way
We know the game we we could play
You know there's no turning back
We can start here...

We Danced On The Ceiling

We Danced On The Ceiling


(Ronnie Scott/ Steve Wolfe)
Producer for Bonnie: Hugh Murphy

**We danced on the ceiling
We danced on the wall
It gave me the feeling
That I wasn't there at all

We danced on the moonlight
We danced on the stars
Too early the daylight
Came liftin' the mask

*Oh I don't wanna let it end
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
Won't you take me through the night
To that far and distant light

Won't you take me back to paradise again

***You took me to heaven
(Oh) You took me from hell
We danced on the ceiling
Together we fell

*repeat
Won't you take me back to paradise again

**repeat
***repeat
*repeat

'Cause we danced on the ceiling
And we danced on the wall
It gave me the reeling

** * * 'I don't wanna let it end I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna let the only thing
We ever had expire
We danced on the ceiling
We danced on the wall

****repeat and fade

What You Got

What You Got


(Jerry Lynn Williams)
Producer for Bonnie: Christopher Neil

I'm so sorry baby
I was the one who hesitated
And I know how much you suffered
And how long you must have waited
But now both my eyes are open
And I can truly see
And I'm as sorry as I can be
Can you forgive me darling
Can you forgive me babe

I must have been crazy
My little heart must have been leakin'
I admit it babe
I admit
I was the first to weaken
But I love you oh so much
And it ain't no doubt
You know what I'm talking about
Can you ever forgive me baby
Can you ever forgive me babe

Coz I just want a little bit, little bit
Honey I don't need a lot
I just want a little bit, little bit
Of what you got

I just want a little, baby
Honey I don't need a lot
I just want a little bit, little bit
Of what you got

I'm so sorry babe
I was the one who hesitated
I know how long you suffered
And how long you must have waited

But now both my eyes are open
And I can finally see
And I'm sorry as I can be
Can you forgive me darling
Can you forgive me babe

Coz I just want a little bit, little bit
Honey I don't need a lot
I just want a little bit, little bit
Of what you got

A little bit, a little bit
Honey I don't need a lot
Just a little bit
A little bit of what you got

A little bit, little bit
Just a little bit, little bit
I say just a little bit, little bit
Of what you got

Whenever You Need Me

Whenever You Need Me


(David Yorath, Bonnie Tyler, David Madiran)
Producer for Bonnie: David Yorath

Can't wait until I'm in your arms
Your kiss sets me on fire
I've never felt so alive
Come on and take me higher
I don't know what it is that makes
Me feel the way I do

Bridge:
But - you're the one that's always been on my mind
And I'll be there when you want me to

Chorus:
Whenever you need me, I'll come running
Whenever you want me, only I will be there
Whenever you need me, for the good times and bad
Anytime, anywhere, I don't care I will be there

I'm the one you're with tonight
This love will never die
Just one touch drives me insane
It makes me want to cry
I'm feeling hot inside and I can't
Control the way I feel

Bridge 2:
But - I keep you up whenever you are feeling down
And I hope you'll always want me around

Chorus 2:
Whenever you need me, to be your lover
Whenever you want me, just one call I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be the best you've ever had
Any time, any where, I don't care I will be there

Whatever you want me to
Whenever you (repeat)

Double Chorus & Ad libs

Whenever you need me, I'll come running
Whenever you want me, only I will be there
Whenever you need me, for the good times and bad
Anytime, anywhere, I don't care I will be there

Whenever you need me, I'll come running
Whenever you want me, only I will be there
Whenever you need me, for the good times and bad
Anytime, anywhere, I don't care I will be there

Where Were You

Where Were You


(Albert Hammond, Holly Knight)
Producer for Bonnie: Roy Bittan

Oh baby - I was always around
To pick you up when you were falling down
Now baby - when you were crying the blues
Wasn't I the one that you came crying to?
In all the years gone by
You've never seen me cry
I never let you see the other side of me

Chorus:
Where were you
When I needed somebody to lean on?
Yeah where were you
When I needed a shoulder to cry on?
I always held you close when you were feeling weak
Guess I was walking down a one-way street
I was a fool to think that you'd be there for me
Where were you?

Oh baby - when you needed a friend
I stuck beside you girl through thick and thin
Now Baby - when no-one cared at all
Wasn't I the one that you would always call
I gave away my heart, I knew just where I stood
Till I reached out for you 'cause I thought I could

(Chorus)

Now even more than what I'm going through
The cut that hurts the most is your attitude
You're pretty good at taking what you need
You've got a lot to learn about loyalty...

Believe me baby...there were times
You drove me crazy...I was so blind
Where were you?

I never let you down when you were full of fear
Saved you from drowning in a sea of tears
Why baby why then weren't you ever
There for me?

(Chorus)

Why

Why


(Dieter Bohlen)
Producer for Bonnie: Dieter Bohlen

It's a breathless night - and I feel the pain
This love is a sacrifice
We can't build a fire baby in the rain
Oh the night has a thousand eyes
How deep is your love babe
No one cares about you
I will love you tomorrow
See what my love can do

Baby why - why should I hurt you?
How many tears can I hide?
Nobody loves you like I do
Time is on my side, baby

You'll close your eyes - I'll stay by your side
I don't care if the sun don't shine
When your heart feels like, oh a motherless child
You are always oh in my mind
How deep is your love babe
No one cares about you
But it's not too late babe
See what my love can do!

Baby why - why should I hurt you?
How many tears can I hide?
Nobody loves you like I do
Time is on my side, baby

Baby why - why should I hurt you?
How many tears can I hide?
Nobody loves you like I do

Wild Love

Wild Love


(Iain Sutherland)
Producers for Bonnie: Hugh Murphy/ Ronnie Scott/ Steve Wolfe

Darlin', every night I keep wonderin'
What I'm not doin' right
The fire's burnin' bright
And you look so, oh so good tonight

*I've been tryin' to make yon happy
For such a long time
Workin' hard to keep you
So much it's a crime
Give me what I want

All I want is your wild love
Give me a taste of your wild love
