Bb                 F7                 Bb          Gm                                   Eb 
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally, perfect situations must go wrong. 
Bb                F7                 Eb            Cm                                            F       
But this has never yet prevented me, wanting far too much for far too long. 
Bb                    F7                           Bb            Gm                                                   Eb     
Looking back I could have played it differently, won a few more moments who can tell. 
Bb             F7                 Eb                      Cm                                           F 
But it took time to understand the man,  now at least I know I know him well. 
 
 
Bb                                       Eb             Ebm                           Bb 
Wasn't it good, wasn't  he fine,  isn't it madness he can't be mine. 
                            F7                     Gm                   C7           Bb 
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me, more , security. 
       F7               Eb          F7                   Bb                                                                  
His fantasy and freedom , I know him so well. 
 
 
Bb                   F7                    Bb              Gm                                          Eb 
No one in your life is with you constantly,  no one is completely on your side. 
Bb                 F7                        Eb                Cm                                          F 
And though I move my world to be with him , still the gap between us is too wide. 
Bb                   F7                             Bb           Gm                                           Eb 
Looking back I could have played it differently, learned about the man before I fell. 
Bb           F7                   Eb                  Cm                                            F        
But I was ever so much younger then, now at least I know I know him well. 
                Bb 
 Wasn't it good etc
