Nothing is so good it lasts eternally Perfect situations must go wrong But this has never yet prevented me From wanting far too much, for far too long... Looking back, I could have done it differently Won a few more moments, who can tell? But it took time to understand the man Now at least I know, I know him well Chorus: Wasn't it good, wasn't it fine Isn't it madness, he can't be mine But in the end, he need a little bit more than before Security (He needs fantasy and freedom) I know him so well... No one in your life is with you constantly No one in completely on your side And though I move my world to be with him Still the gap between us is too wide... Looking back, I could've played it differently Learned about the man before I fell But I was ever so much younger then Now at least I know, I know him well... Wasn't it good, wasn't it fine Isn't it madness, he can't be mine Didn't I know, how it would go If I knew from the start Why am I falling apart... Chorus It took some time to understand him I know him so well
