  • When you flew out of the nest
    You made a mistake
    Flew all the way back
    When you got back to your den
    One minute too late was already wrecked

    I, I
    It's a fraction of the hope but it's hard to control
    I, I get this straight

    You can't can't count on a second chance
    The second chance will never be found
    You can't can't count on a second try
    The second try will never come home

    You stick to what you knew before
    Don't know what you like
    Just made up your mind
    The picture still hangs on the wall
    From back in the day
    When you had it all Writer/s: BJORN YTTLING, JOHN ERIKSSON, PETER MOREN
