„It Must Have Been Love“, originalno „It Must Have Been Love (Christmas for the Broken Hearted)“, je pesma koju je napisao Per Gesle i izvodi švedski pop duo Roxette. Pover balada je postala treći hit broj jedan u Sjedinjenim Državama i jedno je od njihovih najprodavanijih izdanja, pošto je u brojnim zemljama sertifikovano kao zlatno ili platinasto.
Zvanično su objavljene četiri različite verzije pesme. Originalna pesma je objavljena 1987. godine, nakon čega je usledila najuspešnija inkarnacija, malo montirana i presnimljena verzija, bez božićnih referenci, kreirana za muziku za film Lepa žena iz 1990. godine.
Must have been love
But it’s 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 (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 (must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
It was all that I wanted
Now I’m living without
It must have been love (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 (must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
It must have been good
But I lost it somehow
It must have been love (must have been love)
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
From the moment we touched
‘Til the time had run out
Yeah, it must have been love (it must have been love)
But it’s over now (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
Oh, it must have been love
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
Now I’m all alone
It must have been love
But it’s over now (but it’s over now)
Now I’m all alone
