Songwriter: Pål Waaktaar-Savoy

Producer: Roland Spremberg Andreas Herbig

[Verse 1]
Summer moved on
And the way it goes you can't tag along
Honey moved out
And the way it went leaves no doubt

[Pre-Chorus]
Moments will pass
In the morning light I found out
Seasons can't last
And there's just one thing left to ask

[Chorus]
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
With nobody else around

[Verse 2]
Friendships move on
Until the day you can't get along
Handshakes unfold
And the way it goes no one knows

[Pre-Chorus]
Moments will pass
In the morning light I found out
Reasons can't last
So there's just one thing left to ask

[Chorus]
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Reasons can't last
And there's just one thing
Left to ask

[Chorus]
Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
Stay, don't just walk away
A day just like today
With nobody else around

[Outro]
Summer moved on

​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.
