I Know Him So Well

Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting tar too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
Won a 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 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
(Looking back I could have
Played things some other way)
Learned about the man before I fell
(I was just a little careless maybe)
But I was ever so much younger then
(Now at least I know him well)
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 it good
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 security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well

It took time to understand him
I know him so well
