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 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 (I was just a little careless) But I was ever so much younger then And 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? didn't I know? How it would go if I knew from the start? Why, why am I falling apart? He can't be mine.
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me, more security and freedom. I know him so well...
It took time to understand him, I know him so well...
