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
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
Wasn't it good (oh so good)
Wasn't he fine (oh so fine)
Isn'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
(looking back I could have played it some other way)
Won a few more moments who can tell
(I was just a little careless maybe)
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)
Isn'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
Isn'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.
