Wouldn't you know it I've lost my courage Isn't that funny me lost for words Not that it really matters 'cause I know you know And you would have told me yourself if you could Remember the first time we met each other You were in your world and I was in mine Breaking down the barriers we broke all the rules But wasn't it good wasn't it fine While I took for granted, you took your time Longing for love oh how we tried It's over now that's understood, but wasn't it good So long together, two would be lovers Caring for flowers that just wouldn't grow And in all of our tomorrows, we'll have yesterday And wasn't it good, wasn't it fine While I took for granted, you took your time Longing for love, oh how we tried It's over now that's understood But wasn't it good
