Lyrics

Good Man

[Intro: Christoph Koterzina]

As I lay here, reflecting my life

I'm all alone, after all I've said and done

[Verse I: Andreas Dörner]

Do you remember, all the times you cried in vain?

Do you remember, all the times I let you down?

Do you remember, all the times I could not ease the pain?

Do you remember, all the times I let you down?

[Chorus: Christoph Koterzina & Andreas Dörner]

I don't see me being a good man, no one is here to say goodbye

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

[Verse II: Andreas Dörner]

Do you remember, all the moments that I missed?

Do you remember, all the times I could be loved and kissed?

Do you remember, all treasures I threw away?

Do you remember, when I fled and should have stayed?

[Chorus: Christoph Koterzina & Andreas Dörner]

I don't see me being a good man, no one is here to say goodbye

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

[Bridge: Andreas Dörner]

So here I am at the end of the road

I walk alone, I walk alone

So here I am at the end of the road

I walk alone and nobody gives a fuck!

Fuck!

[Chorus: Andreas Dörner]

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

I wish I could go back to my broken past

I'm a broken man with nothing left

I know you can't forgive, I wish you could forget!

I wish you could forget!

[Outro: Christoph Koterzina]

As I lay here, reflecting my life

I'm all alone, after all I've said and done
