Lay a whisper on my pillow, 
leave the winter on the ground. 
I wake up lonely, there‘s 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 ‘til the time had run out. 

Make-believing we‘re together, 
that I‘m sheltered by your heart. 
But in and outside I‘ve turned to water 
like a teardrop in your palm. 
And it‘s a hard Christmas day, 
I dream away. 

It must have been love 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.
