I Know Him So Well

I Know Him So Well (我很瞭解他) (《Chess》音樂劇歌曲) - Elaine Paige (憶蓮·佩姬)/Barbara Dickson (芭芭拉·迪克森)

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'd move 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

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 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
