Lyrics: Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus

I hear the doorbell ring and suddenly the panic takes me
The sound so ominously tearing through the silence
I cannot move, I’m standing numb and frozen
Among the things I love so dearly
The books, the paintings and the furniture, help me

The signal’s sounding once again and someone tries the doorknob
None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient
And they don’t dare to come here any more now
But how I loved our secret meetings
We talked and talked in quiet voices, smiling

Now I hear them moving, muffled noises coming
Through the door, I feel I’m crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting, crackin’ up

They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing, crackin’ up
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m crackin’ up

These walls have witnessed all the anguish of humiliation
And seen the hope of freedom glow in shining faces
And now they’ve come to take me, come to break me
And yet it isn’t unexpected
I have been waiting for these visitors, help me

Now I hear them moving, muffled noises coming
Through the door, I feel I’m crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting, crackin’ up

They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing, crackin’ up
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m crackin’ up

Now I hear them moving, muffled noises coming
Through the door, I feel I’m crackin’ up
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting, crackin’ up

(I have been waiting for these visitors)
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing, crackin’ up

(I have been waiting for these visitors)
My whole world is falling, going crazy
There is no escaping now, I’m crackin’ up

(I have been waiting for these visitors)
Now I hear them moving, muffled noises coming
Through the door, I feel I’m crackin’ up

(I have been waiting for these visitors)
Voices growing louder, irritation building
And I’m close to fainting, crackin’ up

(I have been waiting for these visitors)
They must know by now I’m in here trembling
In a terror evergrowing, crackin’ up
