[Verse 1]
G D G
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally,
Em D C
perfect situations must go wrong.
G D C
But this has never yet prevented me,
Am G C D Cm
from wanting far too much, for far too long.
[Verse 2]
G D G
Looking back, I could have done it differently,
Em D C
won a few more moments, who can tell?
G D C
But it took time to understand the man,
Am G C D
now at least I know, I know him well.
[Chorus]
G
Wasn't it good (wasn't it good)?
C
Wasn't it fine (wasn't it fine)?
Cm G E Am
Isn't it madness? He can't be mine.
G D Em A
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than before,
G D C
Security (he needs his fantasy and freedom)
D G Cm G D D
I know him so well!
[Verse 3]
G D G
No one in your life is with you constantly,
Em D C
no one is completely on your side.
G D C
And though I move my world to be with him,
Am G C D Cm F
still the gap between us is too wide.
[Verse 4]
G D G
Looking back, I could've played it differently,
Em D C
learned about the man before I fell.
G D C
But I was ever so much younger then,
Am G C D
now at least I know, I know him well.
[Chorus]
G
Wasn't it good (oh, so good)?
C
Wasn't it fine (so fine)?
Cm G
Isn't it madness? He can't be mine.
[Bridge]
Am Em
Didn't I know, how it would go?
E
If I knew from the start
D G
Why am I falling apart?
C
Wasn't it fine (so fine)?
Cm G E Am
Isn't it madness? He can't be mine.
G D Em A
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than before,
G D C
Security (he needs his fantasy and freedom)
D G
I know him so well!
[Outro]
Cm G A
It took some time to understand him
D G
Ooh, I know him so well.
