Intro:F#

  F#              C#       F#
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally,
 D#m         C#         B
perfect situations must go wrong.
F#                C#     B
But this has never yet prevented me,
      G#m                B    C#
from wanting far too much, for far too long.

  F#               C#         F#
Looking back, I could have done it differently,
  D#m                C#    B
won a few more moments, who can tell?
F#             C#              B
But it took time to understand the man,
 G#m               B          C#
now at least I know, I know him well.

          F#                              B
Wasnʼt it good (wasnʼt it good), wasnʼt it fine
(wasnʼt it fine)
       Bm          F#   C#
isnʼt it madness, he canʼt be mine.
   F#              C#             D#m   G#
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than before,
  F#                  C#         B       F#
Security (he needs fantasy and freedom). I know him so well !

 G#m   F#   C#   F#       C#       F#
No one in your life is with you constantly,
D#m               C#   B
no one is completely on your side.
F#                  C#        B
And though I move my world to be with him,
 G#m                B    C#
still the gap between us is too wide.

  F#               C#            F#
Looking back, I couldʼve played it differently,
 D#m              C#    B
learned about the man before I fell.
 F#             C#       B
But I was ever so much younger then,
  G#m              B    C#
now at least I know, I know him well.

           F#                      B
Wasnʼt it good (oh, so good), wasnʼt it fine (so fine),
        Bm            F#
isnʼt it madness, he canʼt be mine.
         D#m   G#       D#m
Didnʼt I know,   how it would go,
                    G#     C#         C#7
if I knew from the start, why am I falling (apart)
       B        D#m   G#   B   G#m   F#
it took some time to understand him,
ooh, I know him so well.
