The ABBA story began in June 1966 when Björn Ulvaeus (born 1945) met Benny Andersson (born 1946) for the first time. Björn was a member of the Hootenanny Singers, a very popular folk music group, while Benny played keyboards in Sweden’s biggest pop group of the 1960s, The Hep Stars. The pair wrote their first song together later that year, and by the end of the decade they had established a regular partnership as composers. By that time, Benny had left The Hep Stars, while the Hootenanny Singers only existed in the recording studio. The Hootenanny Singers released their records on the Polar Music record label, owned by Stig Anderson (1931–1997), who was to become ABBA’s manager.

I’ve Been Waiting For You Lyrics
ABBA
I, Ive been in love before
I thought I would no more
Manage to hit the ceiling
Still, strange as it seems to me
You brought it back to me
That old feeling
I, I dont know what you do
You make me think that you
Possibly could release me
I think youll be able to
Make all my dreams come true
And you ease me
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
Youre something Id been pleading for
I love you, I adore you
I lay my life before you
Ill have you want me more and more
And finally it seems my lonely days are through
Ive been waiting for you
I, Im gonna make you mine
Youre gonna feel so fine
Youll never want to leave me
I feel you belong to me
Someday you will agree
Please, believe me
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
Youre something Id been pleading for
I love you, I adore you
I lay my life before you
Ill have you want me more and more
And finally it seems my lonely days are through
Ive been waiting for you
Oh, Ive been waiting for you
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na
Na na na, na na na, na-na na-naa
