Verse 1 With these words we speak of love It's hard for us to end It's all a fallacy That people do pretend Release 1 The changes that I see I tremble and I shake Were down in history For only one mistake Chorus So far so good So far so good Twentieth century , sole survivor So far so good no neighbourhood I can't escape your fire Verse 2 I won't be far away Don't worry about the night And I will take away The trouble in your life Release 2 When danger follows It will take you by surprise No desert island You can run to when you hide Chorus Bridge It's such a tragedy To fight for what we cannot win And all our golden days are gone forever
