Kerry Ellis - I Know Him So Well lyrics

[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-- 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 [Florence & (Svetlana)] Wasn't it good? (Oh so good.) Wasn't he fine? (Oh, so fine.) Isn't it madness? [Both] He can't be mine? [Florence] But in the end he needs A little bit more than me-- More security [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 move my world to be with him Still the gap between us is too wide [Svetlana, simultaneous to Florence] 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 [Florence, simultaneous to Svetlana] Looking back, I could have played it some other way I was just a little careless, maybe I was so much younger then I know I know him well [Svetlana & (Florence)] Wasn't it good? (Oh so good.) Wasn't he fine? (Oh, so fine.) Isn't it madness? [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? [Svetlana] Wasn't it good? Wasn't he fine? [Florence] Isn't it madness? [Both] He won't be mine? [Florence] But in the end he needs A little bit more than me-- More security [Svetlana] He needs his fantasy And freedom [Florence] I know him so well [Svetlana] It took time to understand him [Both] I know him so well
