3.  (Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit lonely
And you're never
coming round
(Kthehu mbrapa)
Gjithcka tani dhe atehere
Une behem pak e vetmuar.
Dhe ti asnjehere nuk
kthehesh prapa
 (Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit tired
Of listening to the
sound of my tears
(Kthehu mbrapa)
Gjithcka tani dhe atehere
Une behem pak e lodhur
Nga degjimi i zerit te
loteve te mi

6.  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
(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)

 Pergjithmone do te filloje sonte

7.  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
 Nether e nje kohe rash

 Nje shperthim total I
zemres
 Njehere e nje kohe

dashuri ne erresire
 Azgje mund te them
 Nje eklips total I zemres

12.  Steinman said in an interview with Playbill, "with Total Eclipse of the Heart, I was
trying to come up with a love song and I remembered I actually wrote that to be a
vampire love song. Its original title was Vampires in Love because I was working
on a musical of Nosferatu, the other great vampire story. If anyone listens to the
lyrics, they're really like vampire lines. It's all about the darkness, the power of
darkness and love's place in dark..."[7] He also told People magazine that he
thought Tyler sounded like John Fogerty, and wrote the song "to be a showpiece
for her voice."[8] Tyler described the song as "a challenge [to sing]," stating that she
"[doesn't] like songs that anybody can sing. I like songs that need a lot of energy."
After Steinman presented her with the song she told The Times, "I just had shivers
right up my spine... ...I couldn't wait to actually get in and record it."[9]
 According to Meat Loaf, Steinman had written the song, along with "Making Love
Out of Nothing at All", for Meat Loaf's album Midnight at the Lost and Found;
however, Meat Loaf's record company refused to pay Steinman and he wrote
separate songs himself. "Total Eclipse of the Heart" was then given to Bonnie Tyler
and "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" to Air Supply.[10] Tyler has denied this
claim to be true.[11] "Meat Loaf was apparently very annoyed that Jim gave that to
me," Tyler stated. "But Jim said he didn’t write it for Meat Loaf, that he only
finished it after meeting me."[12]
 The song's melody originally appeared as part of the soundtrack for the 1980
film A Small Circle of Friends.
