I Know Him So Well Songtext
von Barbara Dickson

Nothing is so good it last 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 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
Learned about the man before I fell
But I was ever 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!
Is¹n′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
