The new addition to this collection. I wrote this song last autumn, and it felt funny to sit at the piano again - I hadn't written a song in two years. I've never wanted to write for ABBA, as my songs wouldn't work with ABBA's style. But now, I feel the desire to write awakening again, so I'm sure I'll be writing more material in the future. When I wrote this song, I called it I'm A Fool Again, You See. Ingela Forsman wrote the Swedish lyrics.


    When You Take Me In Your Arms
    ~ När du tar mej i din famn ~

    Nothing was like before
    Once you shut my door
    And I cried myself to sleep that night.
    It was bitter just then
    And so hard to comprehend
    That our lovewine turned into water.
    And I said to myself,
    ``Never, ever again
    will I let my feelings take control of me.''

    Chorus:
    But when you take me in your arms,
    When you tenderly whisper my name,
    I get hot and cold at the same time.
    The birds sing for me
    Each time I think of you
    Imagine, it sounds as if they're singing a lovesong!
    And when you take me in your arms,
    When you tenderly whisper my name,
    I can believe in love one more time,
    I want to forget all the harsh words
    And I want to love again!

    I was proud when you left,
    Didn't give you a glance
    And I didn't say what I felt.
    But inside, I grew cold,
    It was quiet everywhere
    I didn't understand what had happened.
    And I said to myself,
    ``Never, ever again
    will I let my feelings take control of me.''

    Chorus

    So when you take me in your arms...
