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
