i know him so well

Melanie C

Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
From wanting far too much, for far too long

Looking back, I could have done 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, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs
A little bit more than me for security
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've 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, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
Didn't I know, how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart

Wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs
A little bit more than me for security
I know him so well

It took some time to understand him
Ooh, I know him so well
