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 the man.
Now at least I know
I know him well.

Wasn't it good? Svetlana:
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 Looking back, I could
Have played it differently Have played it some other way.
Learned a little
More before I fell I was just a little careless,
But I was ever Maybe.
So much younger then I was so much younger then.
Now at least
I know I know him well 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.
