Lyrics
You take me high, out of the blue
You're by my side, whenever I need you
The way you smile, the way you move
Why should I try, I can't get over you
All through the night, you take me on
When we unite, I know where I belong
When winter rains, I'll be your friend
What we create, may last until the end
And through the time, that's passing by
I hope you'll always be, you'll be forever
The way you are, the way you are
Where mountains rise, I'll stand by you
My heart assigned, like only lovers do
If we're apart, I'll cross the sea
Don't close your heart, this love was always free
And through the time, that's passing by
I hope you'll always be, you'll be forever
The way you are, the way you are
And if you leave, don't go too far
In your belief, just be the way you are
The way you are
History
Eyes of a Woman is the second English-language solo album by Swedish singer and former ABBA member Agnetha Fältskog, and her eighth album overall. It was released in March 1985.
The album was recorded in the Polar Music Studios in Stockholm. Sessions began in early October 1984 and lasted until the end of November. The album was produced by Eric Stewart of 10cc and features ex-10cc members Rick Fenn and Vic Emerson as session musicians, as well as longtime Stewart's friend Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues.
Notable songwriters who contributed to the album included Jeff Lynne, John Wetton and Geoff Downes as well as Justin Hayward and Eric Stewart himself. Long time ABBA fan Elvis Costello submitted a track "Shatterproof" for inclusion on the album, however Fältskog decided against recording it. Two of the songs recorded, "Turn the World Around" and "You're There", were not included on the initial album, but were released as B-sides. "You're There" and "I Won't Let You Go" were composed by Fältskog herself with lyrics by Eric Stewart.
During the photo sessions for the sleeve of the album, Agnetha posed at the terrace of Drottningholm Palace, the official residence of the Swedish royal family, in Stockholm.
