  • I can see that it won't be long
    You grow cold when you keep holding on
    You know you've changed and your words, they lie
    That's something you can't deny

    I call, you're not at home
    You're home, but you're not alone
    If you wanna leave then why don't you say it
    Your love has gone anyway

    I know there's something going on
    I know there's something going on
    I know it won't be long
    Won't be long before you're gone
    There's something going on
    There's something going on

    I know a good thing must come to an end
    But it's hard to take losing a friend
    I know what you think and what's in your mind
    So darling, look, why pretend?

    I know there's something going on
    I know there's something going on
    I know it won't be long
    It won't be long before you're gone
    There's something going on
    There's something going on
    There's something going on
    There's something going on

    I know there's something going on
    I know there's something going on
    I know it won't be long
    It won't be long before you're gone
    There's something going on
    There's something going on
    There's something going on
    There's something going on

    I know there's something
    I know there's something
    I know there's something
    I know there's something
    I know there's something
    I know there's something
    I know there's something Writer/s: Russell Glyn Ballard

  • Dan from UsI think she is awesome.
  • Llnb from TexasWho is the man playing her husband?
  • Christopher from IllinoisSomething’s Going On was not Frida’s first solo album - it was her third. Frida and Frida Ensam are her first and second albums retrospectively.
  • Dave from Dallas, TxIf the guitar on this song sounds familiar to you, its because its Daryl Stuermer... the same guitarist on all of Phil Collins' solo albums.
  • Esskayess from Dallas, TxThe album this was from had some very nice songs on it, all produced by Collins. The last, “Here We’ll Stay,” has a great duet with Frida and Collins. The CD or album can be found online if one pokes around a bit.
  • Ron from Auburndale, FlThis is an awesome song from Frida. Despite not entering the top 10, it gets quite a bit of airplay to this day. I actually hear it more than I hear any ABBA songs on the radio, perhaps with the exception of "Dancing Queen".
  • Jeff from Austin, TxThis is a great song. The bridge is so powerful. And she's belting it out like a champ.
  • Lester from New York City, NyRuss Ballard has written some great songs
  • Geir from Oslo, NorwayAnni-Frid Lyngstad has a Norwegian mother and a German father, who was a soldier of the German army during the second world war.
