Nothing is so good
it lasts eternally
Perfect situations
must go wrong
But this has never yet
prevented me
Wanting far too much
for far too long
Looking back I could have
played it differently
Learned a little more
before I fell
But it took time
to understand the man
Now at least I know
I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
lsn't it madness
He can't be mine
But in the end he needs
a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy
and freedom
I know him so well
No one in your life
is with you constantly
No one is 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 have
played it differently
Won a few more moments
Who can tell
But I was ever so much
younger then
Now at least I know
I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
lsn't it madness
He won't be mine
Didn't I know
How it would go
if I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart
Wasn't it good
Wasn't he fine
lsn't it madness
He won't be mine
But in the end he needs a
little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy
and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well
