I Know Him So Well Songtext / Lyric

FLORENCE:
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
One 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 (FLORENCE)
Oh so good (SVETLANA)
Wasn´t he fine (FLORENCE)
Oh so fine (SVETLANA)
Isn´t it madness (FLORENCE)

He can´t be mine (BOTH)

But in the end he needs a little bit more than me, more security (FLORENCE)

SVETLANA:
He needs his fantasy and freedom

FLORENCE:
I know him so well

SVETLANA:
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I moved my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide

Looking back I could have played it differently (SVETLANA)
Looking back i could have played things some other way (FLORENCE)
Learned about the man before I fell (SVETLANA)
It was just a little careless maybe (FLORENCE)
But I was ever so much younger then (SVETLANA)
I was so much younger then (FLORENCE)
Now at least I know (SVETLANA)
I know him well (BOTH)

Wasn´t it good (SVETLANA)
Oh so good (FLORENCE)
Wasn´t he fine (SVETLANA)
Oh so fine (FLORENCE)
Isn´t it madness (SVETLANA)

BOTH:
He won´t be mine
Didn´t I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart (FLORENCE)
Wasn´t it good (SVETLANA)
Wasn´t he fine (SVETLANA)
Isn´t it madness (FLORENCE)

He won´t be mine (BOTH)

But in the end he needs a little bit more than me, more security (FLORENCE)

He needs his fantasy and freedom (SVETLANA)

I know him so well (FLORENCE)
It took time to understand him (SVETLANA)
I know him so well (BOTH)
