As good as new was included on the album Voulez vous and was written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus. The recording sessions began on the 14th of March 1979 at Polar Music Studios in Stockholm. This has been created for promotion of their 1979 World tour (confirmation?). Hope you like it! :)
[Verse 1]
I'll never know why I had to go
Why I had to put up such a lousy rotten show
Boy, I was tough, packing all my stuff
Saying I don't need you anymore, I've had enough
[Pre-Chorus]
And now, look at me standing here again
'Cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Got to have you near
[Chorus]
As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together
[Verse 2]
Feel like a creep, never felt so cheap
Never had a notion that my love could be so deep
How could I make such a dumb mistake?
Now I know I'm not entitled to another break
[Pre-Chorus]
But please, baby, I beg you to forgive
'Cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Got to have you near
[Chorus]
As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together
[Bridge]
I thought that our love was at an end but here I am again
[Chorus]
As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together
[Outro]
Yes, the love I have for you feels as good as new
Darling, we were always meant to stay together
