I am confused about a word "turnaround" in the song which is "Total eclipse of the heart" by Bonnie Tyler.
The lyrics below:
Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
......
I enjoy this song and want to know more about this song.
But when I looked up the Chinese lyrics on the web site, I found out most of the Chinese translation about this song translated the word "turnaround" into "?? go away".
I don't think "turnaround" in this song "total eclipse of the heart" means "go away".
I thought it might be "a complete change from a bad situation to a good one".
Can someone help me that?
It's great that someone have the background of this song.
Thank you!

I do not know the song, but "turnaround" could be read in a couple of different ways. A "turnaround" can refer to a situation that changes, usually from bad to good. Or it could be a command: turn around (and go away).
