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 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 more than before 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 (I could have played it some other way) Learned about the man before I fell (I was just a little careless, maybe) But I was ever so much younger then (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 can'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 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 before Security, he needs his fantasy and freedom I know him so well It took time to understand him I know him so well
