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 Want 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 he good? Wasn't he fine? Isn't he 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 moved my world to be with him Still the gap between us is too wide Looking back, I could have 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 he good? Wasn't he fine? Isn't he 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 good? Wasn't he fine? Isn't he 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's a time to understand him I know him so well
