My Professional Persona Never Loosens Its Grip,

There Was A Time When The Music Fell Silent. Both Within Me And Around Me.

I May Have Aimed Too High Sometimes, Asked Too Much Of Myself And Demanded Too Little From Those Around Me.

When I Was 25, Abba Was Formed. After Abba I Made Three Solo Albums. Maybe I Have Been Productive Enough.

I Can Spot Empty Flattery And Know Exactly Where I Stand. In The End It's Really Only My Own Approval Or Disapproval That Means Anything.

My Professional Persona Never Loosens Its Grip, Keeping An Eye On Me At All Times.
