(B. Andersson / B. Ulvaeus)

 

No smiles, not a single word

at the breakfast table
though I would have liked to begin
So much that I wanna say,

but I feel unable
You leave and you slam the door
like you’ve done many times before
and I cry and I feel so helpless

One man, one woman
two friends and two true lovers
somehow we’ll help each other
through the hard times
One man, one woman
one life to live together
one chance to take that never
comes back again -
you and me
’til the end

Outside I can see the sun

through the open window
inside everything feels so cold
What’s wrong, what is happening?
Where did all our love go?
Sometimes when I just can’t cope
I cling to a desperate hope
and I cry and I feel like dying

One man, one woman…
 
Daydreams of a better life

but I have to wake up
– the sound of a key in the door
You smile and I realise

that we need a shake up
Our love is a precious thing
worth the pain and the suffering
and it’s never too late for changing

One man, one woman…
