MUSICURIOSIDADES

Marie Fredriksson y Per Gessle ya habían formado con anterioridad bandas que tuvieron un importante éxito local, sobre todo Per, como líder del grupo Gyllene Tider. Pero en 1986, los considerados como la mejor cantante y el mejor compositor del momento en Suecia, decidieron unirse para formar Roxette.

En 1986 grabaron su primer sencillo, «Neverending Love», el cual estaría incluido en su primer álbum Pearls Of Passion. El sencillo fue el primer Top Ten del dúo en su país natal, dando paso a posteriores ediciones de canciones que lograron un éxito similar. El primer álbum de Roxette logró el éxito local que los llevó a vender más de doscientas mil copias en Suecia.

It Must Have Been Love

It must have been love
But it’s over now
Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, this 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 it’s over now
It must have been good
But I lost it somehow
It must have been love
But it’s over now
From the moment we touched
Till the time had run out
Make believing
We’re together
That I’m sheltered
By your heart
But in and outside
I turn to water
Like a teardrop
In your palm
And it’s a hard
Winter’s day
I dream away
It must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
It was all that I wanted
Now I’m living without
It must have been love
But it’s over now
It’s where the water flows
It’s where the wind blows
It must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
It must have been good
But I lost it somehow
It must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
From the moment we touched
Till the time had run out
It must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
It was all that I wanted
Now I’m living without
It must have been love
But it’s over now
It’s where the water flows
It’s where the wind blows
It must have been love
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
Now
Must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
Now
