1. 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 C D
from wanting far too much, for far too long.
G D G
2. 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 C D
now at least I know, I know him well.
G C
Wasn't it good (wasn't it good), wasn't it fine (wasn't it fine)
Cm G - D
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,

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 C D
still the gap between us is too wide.
G D G
4. 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 C D
now at least I know, I know him well.
G C
Wasn't it good (oh, so good), wasn't it fine (so fine),
Cm G
isn't it madness, he can't be mine.
Em - A Em
Didn't I know, how it would go,
A D D7
if I knew from the start, why am I falling (apart) + REFRAIN
C Em - A C Am G
it took some time to understand him, ooh, I know him so well.
