ABBA - As Good As New Lyrics






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
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 ma my life is here
Gotta have you near

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

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
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 ma my life is here
Gotta get you near

I thought that our love was at an end but here I am again

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

Yes the love I have for you feels as good as new
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

  26. S.... S....

    i love all abba songs too greetings from croatia

  27. A.... L....

    one of my favorite song

  28. E.... O....

    Honestly I will rather choose abba over the beatles

    E.... O....

    Emeka Onwuchekwa ABBA are the greatest pop band ever and that’s coming from a rock guy like me

    E.... O....

    Emeka Onwuchekwa Yes, indeed. Me too. The Beatles are great, but I find there’s always an undercurrent of dark gloominess in their melodies. ABBA’s songs have a positive, upbeat, bright sound.

    E.... O....

    ABBA is the best pop group in history !!

    E.... O....

    Emeka Onwuchekwa Mmm no, my top:

    1. The Beatles
    2. Pink Floyd
    3. Queen
    4. ABBA

  29. R.... B....

    I love ABBA's chic look on the Voulez-Vous album cover. Magnificent.

    R.... B....

    They're more chic than Chic :P

  30. R.... B....

    Such a catchy song!!!!!!!!!!!!

  31. T.... F....

    First part of the Intro: Something like a Beethoven symphony
    Second part of the Intro and verse: Anyone relate to "Don't stop til you get enough by M Jackson"

    T.... F....

    This came first

    T.... F....

    Well, actually is something more like Mozart

  32. G.... V....

    As Good As New from the 1979 Album Voulez Vous Lead Vocals Agnetha Faltskog.

  33. A.... M....

    One of mine too, the moment it came out up to now and forever !!!!

  34. M.... ....

    Music has devolved since the 70s...

  35. M.... J....

    Great record

  36. p.... p....

    So should have been in the new film

    p.... p....

    When Sky surprised Sophie when he returned to the island?

  37. A.... K....

    I really love the modern and beautiful melodies of this song, together with great singing !! Thank you for ABBA as always♡

  38. s.... t....

    My second favorite album.

    s.... t....

    What is your first favourite album ? :-)

    s.... t....

    @Anastasia Vinogradova Mine The Album!!

  39. n.... I....

    Adore it ..MA Maa ma ma ma

  40. g.... ....

    Deliciously disco, and that splendid violin intro.... perfect song! <3

  41. f.... k....

    Best song from abba for me

  42. C.... P....

    Reminds me of a mix between "Angel Eyes" and "Dancing Queen".

  43. g.... ....

    Master intro!

  44. G.... M....

    Great!.

  45. g.... ....

    Masterpiece! The song's intro is epic.

  46. T.... M....

    Love abba their my favourite band anyone know how old the abba members were when this Abulm was released

    T.... M....

    Agnetha was 29, Frida 34, Björn 34 and Benny 33 years old in 1979.

    T.... M....

    Doro Jessy cool did you ever see them in concert

    T.... M....

    @Tara Miller No, unfortunately not was only 11 years old in 1979 ;-)

    T.... M....

    Doro Jessy ok I love to see them in concert are you fan of them

    T.... M....

    @Tara Miller Yep, used to be fan of them since '79.

  47. s.... ....

    Why does it fade at the end? Kind of ruins it :(

    s.... ....

    Exactly .

    s.... ....

    Almost all their songs fade at the end - that's the way they thought the melody would somehow "remain" in the 70s. I don't like it either

    s.... ....

    I have the album on LP and there is not fade at the end of this song.

    s.... ....

    Loop it.

    s.... ....

    A Terrible editing design at the END!!. This is not artistic to end the melody like that. Those who edited this clip have no sense of music at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  48. V.... G....

    This song takes me back to early seventies, me a teenager...when love and life was simple and uncomplicated those days,which reflects in the lyrics. And all lyrics of Abba have depth and so true to life!!!

    V.... G....

    Hey Vandana, in the '70s I lived in Zambia, and life was golden. Were you in Africa then?

  49. d.... ....

    man u r a genious to make this fab.  lyric video

  50. c.... ....

    That introduction is amazing! I wish the rest of the song was like that.

    c.... ....

    The rest of the song is perfect :)

    c.... ....

    chileepengwin You know ELO

    c.... ....

    This introduction melody of the strings is being repeated in the refrains and other places of this song!

    c.... ....

    It's like the music in saturday night fever

  51. f.... k....

    Thi is best ABBA song ever...

  52. G.... V....

    One of my all time favorites by Agnetha Faltskog.

    Your question is already 6 months old, but if you are still looking for Abba on YouTube I can help you. Agnetha has a YouTube channel where she presents her new music. Just go to the video

    Thank you for supporting my new album

    With one more click on the right video you'll land directly on her channel. She's waiting there for comments from her fans.

    Good luck !

    Abba919 this wasn't unreleased, it just wasn't promoted as much as some of the other songs on Voulez-Vous. But yes, ABBA has soooooo many hidden gems :)
