It Must Have Been Love Lyrics
Roxette
Lyrics
It must have been love
but its over now.
Lay a whisper
on my pillow,
leave the winter
on the ground.
I wake up lonely,
theres air of silence
in the bedroom
and all around.
Touch me now,
I close my eyes
and dream away.
It must have been love
but its over now.
It must have been good
but I lost it somehow.
It must have been love
but its over now.
From the moment we touched
til the time had run out.
Make-believ
