Lyrics:
Monday morning – the streets are black with rain\\nUnder a skylight hovers sad and grey\\nTuesday waits down the endless dreary lane\\nAnd every day is like the other day\\n\nI am blue and I long for your caress\\nOh... your breasts are like swallows a-nestling\\nYou're the summer, life grows in you, summer wind blows in you\\nSummer rains flow in you, summer sings low in you\\nYou are summer, you never tell me no\\nSummer, life grows in you, summer wind blows in you\\nSummer, you never tell me no\\n\nTimes are stale and the days are long and slow\\nThere is no song can make me laugh and sing\\nHalf past four, I pack up and home I go\\nHome to the void and fear the evenings bring\\n\nI am blue and I long for your caress\\nOh... your breasts are like swallows anestling\\nYou're the summer, life grows in you, summer wind blows in you\\nSummer rains flow in you, summer sings low in you\\nYou are summer, you never tell me no\\nSummer, life grows in you, summer wind blows in you\\nSummer, you never tell me no\\n\nI am blue and I long for your caress\\nOh... your breasts are like swallows anestling\\nYou're the summer, life grows in you, summer wind blows in you\\nSummer rains flow in you, summer sings low in you\\nYou are summer, you never tell me no\\n\nYou are summer, you never tell me no
Sweden chose their entry for Eurovision Song Contest 1973 in a national final called Melodifestivalen 1973. One of the competitors was a group of those who would later be the members of ABBA, but they only finished 3rd with their own entry. Instead, the winner was the song "Sommaren som aldrig säger nej" with the group Malta. They had, to avoid confusion, change their name to "Nova & The Dolls". The song was translated into English and got the name "You're Summer". The song's lyrics were written by Lars Forsell, and it was composed by Monica and Carl-Axel Dominique.
Overall Final Postion: 5
