I know I saw you in town yesterday
You smiled and took my hand.
But then you disappeared again,
Afterward I met you in my dream.
You are my fairy-tale prince, in a fairy-tail world,
But every time you should kiss me,
I wake up from my dream.
LITTLE GERHARD
Agnetha was her name, Agnetha Faltskog.
She works for a car dealership in Jonkoping. Aha then. So I start to call around to all the car dealerships in Jonkoping, and there are quite a few, asking Do you have anyone named Agnetha Faltskog?
And so I came across her, She's sitting at the switchboard of one of the places. So she said, yes, i'm Agnetha Faltskog. Yes, hello said I, this is Little Gerhard from Stockholm.Hi,hi, hi, plonk!
AGNETHA
No, I didn't think he was the one who called. It was, you see, it was the world's greatest thing that Little Gerhard called me, a 17 year old from Jonkoping.
LITTLE GERHARD
So I got to call again. Yes, hello, this islittle Gerhard, are you Agnetha Faltskog? Yes-no, is this some kind of joke, she said.
AGNETHA
I thought maybe it was someone playing a trick or such, I absolutely didn't believe it was real. Then he said, then, then, then lets do it this way, you call me instead, silly.
LITTLE GERHARD
Do it, because I wan't to do an album with you.(Clank),I put the receiver down. So about 30 minutes went by and then(RING) You have a call, Aha, I picked up the phone, then she said, Who am I speaking with? This is Little Gerhard. I see, is it really she said?
Then I said, The song that's on the tape, whose song is it? It is my own, she said. It is very good, I said, It wen't like this Now I begin to realize.
AGNETHA
Yes, now I begine to realize
That it was a mistake on my part, Because it's you, only you
That's standing in front of me
Where ever I go.
LITTLE GERHARD
So I explained how it was, that i'm at a recording studio in Stockholm, and would like to give you a chance. Then I talked with Waldoff and said we must fix up the background, record down at Philips House with strings and such things. Once everything was set I called down to Agnetha and then said, can you come up on such and such a day. She came up with her dad then, and I had arranged to have a photographer at the studio.
AGNETHA
It is one of my fondest memories, when my father and I arrived at Philips House, at the bottom of the stairs there, and one could hear a string orchestra there playing my song. I think that's the greatest thing i've experienced, musically speaking, that is. Exactly as I had, as I had imagined and hoped for, it was. Captured exactly as I wanted it, oweing largely to Sven Olof Waldoff and Little Gerhard!
LITTLE GERHARD
She had long blonde hair and it was a little like she didn't know where to go. So she got up on stage and cranked out both songs. Then I said Eh, there's something wrong, can you sing it differently? I can, she said, just like that, immediately too.
AGNETHA
It was quite easy for me to do, I've alway's been good with voices.
AGNETHA
Where ever I go.
Where ever I go.
