Iceland: Yohanna - Is It True?
Eurovision Song Contest · Other Songs - Eurovision Song Contest
You're not afraid to show me,
What is in your eyes.
So tell me about the rumours
Are they only rumours?
Are they only lies?
Falling out of a perfect dream,
Coming out of the blue.
Is it true?
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you?
Did you tell me you would never leave me this way?
If you really knew me
You couldn't do this to me
You would be my friend
If one of us is lying
There's no use in trying
No need to pretend
Falling out of a perfect dream,
Coming out of the blue.
Is it true?
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you?
Did you tell me you would never leave me this way?
Is it true?
Is it over?
Did I throw it away?
Was it you?
Did you tell me you would never leave me this way?
Is it real?
Did I dream it?
Will I wake from this pain
Is it true?
Is it over?
Baby did I throw it away?
Is It True?

The recording reflects the genre trends of the era, characterized by upbeat tempos and melodic structures designed for television performance. Yohanna has since established herself as a prominent figure in Dutch pop music, with this contest song marking an early chapter in her extensive discography and public musical identity.
