Nothing is so good, it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this have never yet prevented me
Wanting far to 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 men,
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 madness he can't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More, security
He needs 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 differently
Won a few more moments who can tell (I was just a little girl)
But I was never so much younger then (so much 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 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 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 men
I know him so well
