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'd 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

Wasn't he 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 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....
