Roxette / It Must Have Been Love Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With the moon and the sun in his eyes
He's arriving
And I don't know what I do without him
I got life suddenly

See, see me
I've got nothing to hide
See me
I've got nothing to hide, see me

I'm leaving my heart in the palm of his hand
So gently
I know he knows that I love him
Though I've never said
Is there an easy way

See, see me
I've got nothing to hide
See me
I've got nothing to hide, see me

Coming home, I'm coming home
It feels like I'm coming home
Coming home, I'm coming home

See, see me
I've got nothing to hide
see me
I've got nothing to hide
See, see me





From album "The Ballad Hits"(2002)
