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 far 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 men

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 (Some other way)

Won a few more moments, who can tell?

(I was just a little careless, maybe)

But I was ever so much younger then (I was so much younger then)

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 (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? (So 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
