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 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... Wasn't it good? (It was so good) Wasn't it fine? (It was so fine) Isn't it madness, he can'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 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 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? (It was so good) Wasn't it fine? (It was so fine) Isn't it madness, he won't be mine Did I know, how it would go If I knew from the start Why am I falling apart... Wasn't it good? Wasn't it 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 some time to understand him I know him so well
