"Nothing is so good it last 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
One or few more moments who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Chorus
Wasn't it good? (Oh so good)
Wasn't it fine? (so fine)
Isn't it madness
That 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 moved my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide.
Looking back I could have done it differently
Learn about the man before I fell
But I was ever so much younger then
Now at least I know I know him well"
Chorus
Wasn't it good
wasn't it 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?
repeat chorus
