I Know Him So Well
"Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
From wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
One or few more moments, who can tell?
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Chorus
Wasn't it good? (Oh so good)
Wasn't he fine? (so fine)
Isn't it madness
That he can't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than before
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'd move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide.
Looking back I could have done it differently
Learn about the man before I fell
But I was ever so much younger then
Now at least I know I know him well
Chorus
Wasn't it good
wasn't he 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?
