The Very Best of Bonnie Tyler
Compilation - 1993 - Debaser id 40902

I was lost in France
In the fields the birds were singing
I was lost in France
And the day was just beginning
As I stood there in the morning rain
I had a feeling I can't explain
I was lost in France in love

I was lost in France
In the street a band was playing
And the crowd all danced
Didn't catch what they were saying
When I looked up he was standing there
And I knew I shouldn't but I didn't care
I was lost in France in love

Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing

I was lost in France
And the vines were over-flowing
I was lost in France
And a million stars were glowing
And I looked round for a telephone
To say 'baby I won't be home'
I was lost in France in love

Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing

And I looked round for a telephone
To say 'baby I won't be home'
I was lost in France in love

Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing
Ooh la la la Ooh la la la dance
Ooh la la la dancing...out

It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down

It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown

It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down

It ain't right, with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you

Ah, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down

It's a fool's game
Nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown

It ain't right, with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone
As much as I depended on you

Ah, it's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down

It's a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain
Feeling like a clown

It's a heartache
Love him till your arms break
Then he lets you down

It's a fool's game

Here am I in love again clinging to your arms again
Wondering why I wanted to be free
Here am I next to you wondering what we ought to do
Can't afford to lose it all again

Here am I, there are you, we nearly broke our hearts in two
Would have been the worst thing in the world
When I thought that we could live apart
I must have been crazy, what a fool I was
What a fool from the moment you got in my heart
I should have known baby, but now I know, oh!

Here am I in love again clinging to your arms again
Wondering' why I wanted to be free
When I thought that we could live apart
I must have been crazy, what a fool I was
What a fool from the moment you got in my heart
I should have known baby, but now I know, oh!

Here am I in love again clinging to your arms again
Wondering' why I wanted to be free
Here am I next to you wondering' what we ought to do
Can't afford to lose it all again
Here am I in love again clinging to your arms again
Here am I, there are you, we nearly broke our hearts in two
Would have been the worst thing in the world

(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
(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
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 wonderous 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)
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
(If you'll only)
Well be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
(And we'll never)
'Cause we'll never be wrong

Together we can take it to the end of the line
Love is like a shadow on me all of the time
(All of the time)
I don't know what to do, 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
A total eclipse of the heart

(Turn around bright eyes
Turn around bright eyes
Turn around).

Where have all good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and turn and I dream of what I need

(Chorus)
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life (larger than life)

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

(Chorus)

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that there's someone somewhere
Watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like a fire in my blood

(Chorus)

How's it feel to be a woman
How's it feel to be a man
Are we really that different
Tell me where you stand
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day
I'd like to try another way
Oh baby for just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

How's it feel to be the hunter
How's it feel to be the prey
Is there really a reason
For this game we play
I look at you, you look away
Why do you say we're night and day
I'd like to try another day
Oh darling, just one day

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a heart's a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

Hey, we're just two people trying to love
Oh but how, how can we love
With this wall between us, holding us back

If you were a woman and I was a man
Would it be so hard to understand
That a hearts a heart and we do what we can
If you were a woman and I was a man
If you were a woman and I was a man

(Desmond Child/ Diane warren)
Producer for Bonnie: Desmond Child

I can't figure you out
But a heart must be the one thing
You were born without
I'm through wasting my time
I don't know where I'll sleep tonight
You say that you can do without me
Go ahead now, try and live without me....

Baby, save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
Cause you'll be cryin' over me

You got used to my touch
I got used to not feeling much
Winter set in your eyes
Time will melt your castle of ice
You think that you won't feel the pain now
Your eyes'll be cryin' like the rain now....
Baby, save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
Cause you'll be cryin' over me
You don't know it now
But some wounds get deeper with time
You don't feel it now
Till the need burns, a knife turns
Your heart bleeds like mine....

Written by - Howard Houston
I'll take the train to nowhere
This love is a sacrifice
My heart ain't big enough babe
For your paradise...
Oh darling I'm crazy - after all these years

Don't throw away my love babe
I'm not a lonely child
Tomorrow's such a long time
My dreams are running wild...
Oh Darling I'm crazy - after all these years

I gave you all my love for free
My tears are full of memories
Give me love, give me all
Baby, catch me when I'll fall tonight

Bitterblue, Bitterblue
Breaking up is hard to do
Bitterblue you know that I'm too
Proud to cry
Bitterblue, Bitterblue
I can't take my eyes off you
That's no way to say goodbye

I'll be sailing on a rainbow
If you will change your mind
Don't throw away this love babe
Love is hard to find...
Oh darling I'm crazy - after all these years

Come save a little room babe
In your heart for me
We can make it better
Love is a mystery...
Oh darling I'm crazy - after all these years

Oh I sold my heart to you
I gave you love and heaven, too
Give me love, give me all
Baby catch me when I'll fall tonight

Bitterblue, Bitterblue
Breaking up is hard to do
Bitterblue you know that I'm too
Proud to cry
Bitterblue, Bitterblue
I can't take my eyes off you
And that's no way to say goodbye

Bitterblue, Bitterblue
Breaking up is hard to do
Bitterblue you know that I'm too
Proud to cry
Bitterblue, Bitterblue
I can't take my eyes off you
And that's no way to say goodbye

And that's no way to say goodbye
And that's no way to say goodbye
And that's no way to say goodbye

"Living in a danger zone
A lonely man a lonely child
So many miles away from home
Emotions running wild with me

Come take my heart
Come feel the burns of fire
Come and break my heart
And feel my loving mind

Oh against the wind I'm flying
Against the wind I'm crying
This night was made for a lonely
Don't break my heart tonight, no

Oh you need a helping hand
The times are geting tough
Baby come and try again
There's no living without love, in my heart
It's hard for me, but it's harder to ignore it
Oh my fantasy, come feel my love tonight."
