(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 listening 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 (Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild (Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms (Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry (Turn around) Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but 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 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 TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES (Turn around) Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy you always wanted to be (Turn around) But every now and then I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am (Turn around) Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wondrous as you (Turn around) Every now and then I know there's nothing any better, there's nothing that I just wouldn't do 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 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 A total eclipse of the heart a total eclipse of the heart Turn around, bright eyes Turn around, bright eyes Turn around
You can't run away forever But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start You want to shut out the night, you want to shut down the sun You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart Think of how we'd lay down together We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs Chorus 1: I treasure your love, I never want to lose it You've been through the fires of hell And I know you've got the ashes to prove it I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt And I know you've got the scars to prove it Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true When you're alone and afraid, and you're completely amazed To find there's nothing anybody can do Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby Chorus 2: There's always something magic, there's always something new And when you really really need it the most That's when rock and roll dreams come through The beat is yours forever, the beat is always new And when you really really need it the most That's when rock and roll dreams come through for you (Solo) (chorus 1) Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true You're never alone cause you can put on the phones And let the drummer tell your heart what to do Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
Baby we can talk all night But that ain't getting us nowhere I've 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 Now 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 Coup de ville hiding at the bottom of a CrackerJack box I can't lie I can't tell you that I'm something I'm not no matter how I try I'll never be able to give you something something that I just haven't got Well there's only one girl that I will ever love and that was so many years ago And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart She never loved me back, ooh I know I remember how she left me on a stormy night She kissed me and got out of our bed And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door She packed her bags and turned right away And she kept on telling me she kept on telling me she 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 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. Paradise BOY: I remember every little thing As if it happened only yesterday Parking by the lake And there was not another car in sight And I never had a girl Looking any better than you did And all the kids at school They were wishing they were me that night And now our bodies are oh so close and tight It never felt so good, it never felt so right And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife C'mon! Hold on tight! C'mon! Hold on tight! Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night I can see paradise by the dashboard light GIRL: Ain't no doubt about it We were doubly blessed Cause we were barely seventeen And we were barely dressed Ain't no doubt about it Baby got to go and shout it Ain't no doubt about it We were doubly blessed BOY: Cause we were barely seventeen And we were barely dressed Baby doncha hear my heart You got it drowning out the radio I've been wating so long For you to come along and have some fun And I gotta let ya know No you're never gonna regret it So open up your eyes I got a big surprise It'll feel all right Well I wanna make your motor run And now our bodies are oh so close and tight It never felt so good, it never felt so right And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife C'mon! Hold on tight! C'mon! Hold on tight! Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night I can see paradise by the dashboard light Paradise by the dashboard light You got to do what you can And let Mother Naure do the rest Ain't no doubt about it We were doubly blessed Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely -- we're gonna go all the way tonight we're gonna go all the way and tonight the night.... RADIO BROADCAST: Okay here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here, two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth, there's the wind-up, and there it is, a line shot up the middle, look at him go. This boy can really fly! He's rounding first and really turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he's out! No, wait, safe. Safe at second base, this kid really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the plate, here's the pitch - he's going, and what a jump he's got, he's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt - safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out there, almost daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close, here's the throw, here's the play at the plate, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it! II. Let Me Sleep On It GIRL: Stop right there!

Praying for the End of Time BOY: I couldn't take it any longer Lord I was crazed And when the feeling came upon me Like a tidal wave I started swearing to my God and on my mother's grave That I would love you to the end of time I swore that I would love you to the end of time! So now I'm praying for the end of time To hurry up and arrive Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you I don't think that I can really survive I'll never break my promise or forget my vow But God only knows what I can do right now I'm praying for the end of time It's all that I can do Praying for the end of time So I can end my time with you!!! BOY: It was long ago and it was far away And it was so much better than it is today GIRL: It never felt so good It never felt so right And we were glowing like a metal on the edge of a knife
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning There was fog crawling over the sand When I listen to your heart I hear the whole world turning I see the shooting stars falling through you trembling hands You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining I was dying just to ask for a taste We were lying together in a silver lining By the light of the moon You know there's not another moment not another moment not another moment to waste You hold me so close that my knees grow weak But my soul is flying high above the ground I'm trying to speak, but no matter what I do I just can't seem to make any sound And then you took the words right out of my mouth Oh it must've been while you were kissing me You took the words right out of my mouth And I swear it's true I was just about to say I love you And then you took the words right out of my mouth Oh it must've been while you were kissing me You took the words right out of my mouth And I swear it's true I was just about to say I love you Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water and I guess that I'm beginning to grin Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to The night is young And no one's gonna know where you No one's gonna know where you've been You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining I was dying just to ask for a taste We were lying together in a silver lining By the light of the moon You know there's not another moment not another moment not another moment to waste
