[Verse 1]
Come back, my darling one
I'm calling on you
The road ahead is long
And I must warn you

I wonder
Where did she go?
If I failed you
I tell you right now

[Chorus]
All I want you to know
I love you
All I need is the time
To show you

[Verse 2]
Come back, my fallen son
Don't let 'em fool ya
'Cause when the day is done
They never move you

Lay down your senseless pride
(You got more than you)
Put out your mournful tones
Tell you right now

[Chorus]
All I want you to know
I love you
All I need is the time
To show you how I feel, feel

[Pre-Chorus]
Lay down your senseless pride
Trampled once too often, yeah
I tell you right now

[Chorus]
All I want you to know
I love you
All I need is the time
To show you

[Outro]
Oh yeah
You know I love you
All I need is the time
To show you how I feel, feel
Ooh

​a-ha

A-ha is a Norweigian synth pop group formed in 1982. All ten of their studio albums have either reached #1 or #2 in Norway – the first three also reaching the top 10 in several countries across Europe – with a total of over 35 million sold worldwide. They became a ‘teen pin-up band’ and were followed by screaming, enthusiastic fans. In 2012, all three members were appointed to knighthood in Norway for their contributions to music.

Frontman Morten Harket was lured away from the blues/soul group Soldier Blue in 1982 by keyboardist Magne Furuholmen to join his band with guitarist Paul Waaktaar. When Harket saw a song in Waaktaar’s notebook that was going to be titled either “a-ha” or “A-hem”, he suggested naming the band “a-ha”.

A year later, the band released their debut single “Take On Me” in 1984 to huge success in Norway. However, when the song was re-recorded and re-released alongside their debut album Hunting High And Low in the summer of 1985 it achieved massive international success, reaching #1 in eleven countries. Its success was definitely aided by its groundbreaking, award-winning music video of pencil-sketch animation combined with live-action shots.
