Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long

Looking back, I could have played it differently
One of few more moments who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know, I know him well

Wasn't it good? Oh so good
Wasn't he fine? Oh so fine
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine?

But in the end he needs a little bit
More than me more, she needs 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 move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide

Looking back, I could have played it differently
Planned about the man before I fell
But I was ever so much younger then
Now at least I know, I know him well

Wasn't it good? Oh so good
Wasn't he fine? Oh so fine
Isn't it madness, he won't be mine?

Didn't I know how it would go?
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
Wasn't he fine? Isn't it madness?
He won't be mine?

But in the end he needs a little bit
More than me more, she needs security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand me
I know him so well

Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
