It Must Have Been Love

It must have been love

But its over now..



Lay a whisper on my pillow

Leave the winter on the ground

I wake up lonely

There's air of silence

In the bedroom and all around

Touch me now

I close my eyes and dream away



It must have been love but it's over now

It must have been good but I lost it somehow

It must have been love but it's over now

From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out



Make-believing we're together

That I'm sheltered by your heart

But in and outside

I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm

And it's a hard winter's day

I dream away



It must have been love but it's over now

It was all that I wanted

Now I'm living without

It must have been love but it's over now

It's where the water flows

It's where the wind blows



It must have been good but I lost it somehow

It must have been love but it's over now

From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out



It must have been love but it's over now

It was all that I wanted

Now I'm living without

It must have been love but it's over now

It's where the water flows

It's where the wind blows



It must have been love but it's over now

now oh oh oh

It must have been love but it's over now

now oh oh oh

It Must Have Been Love

Released as a single from the 1995 compilation album Definitely Maybe, this track stands as a defining moment in Oasis's career, blending their signature Britpop sound with a melancholic, acoustic-driven arrangement. The song features the band's characteristic vocal interplay between Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher, delivering a raw emotional core that resonated deeply with audiences during the mid-90s. While often associated with their broader discography, its standalone impact highlights the group's ability to craft intimate ballads alongside their more anthemic rock tracks. The recording captures the transitional energy of the era, reflecting the band's evolution from their early garage rock roots toward a more polished, mainstream pop-rock identity that would later define their legacy.
