Lyrics and music: M.Lindblom, A.Wollbeck When the shouting stops And the tears are dry When you did everything That you thought was right When the debt you owe Really starts to show And everyone around knows There's a good thing slipping away There's a would have been that should have stayed My head is strong But the feeling's gone I just can't be afraid So I'll take it on Even if I'm wrong I still won't be ashamed There's a good thing slipping But a good thing coming my way I laid myself in a bed of trouble Way down low There's a hole in the garden now Where flowers used to grow When the door is closed Everybody knows A window's flying open somewhere There's a good thing slipping away There's a would have been that should have stayed My head is strong But the feeling's gone I just can't be afraid So I'll take it on Even if I'm wrong I still won't be ashamed There's a good thing slipping But a good thing coming my way So much time to regret So much pain to forget Don't even ask me to say it's not fair For you to stay Never wanted to pray Instead of living my life
