“Stuck on you.
I've got this feeling down
Deep in my soul
That I just can't lose.
Guess, I'm on my way.
Needed a friend
And the way I feel now I guess
I'll be with you till the end
Guess I'm on my way
Mighty glad you stayed.”

Song lyrics

“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.”

Jim Steinman (1947) American musician

Total Eclipse of the Heart (1983)
Context: 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.
