I Know Him So Well Songtext
von Elaine Paige & 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!
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...
