Paroles: John Barrowman. Music Music Music. 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? 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 moved 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 (I was just a little careless)
But I was ever so much younger then
And 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?

Didn't I know? didn't I know?
How it would go if I knew from the start?
Why, why am I falling apart?
He can't be mine.

But in the end he needs a little bit more than me, more security and freedom.
I know him so well...

It took time to understand him,
I know him so well...
