I Know Him So Well (Duet with Barbara Dickson) [From "Chess"]

I Know Him So Well(D(1984 Single)uet with Barbara Dickson) - Elaine Paige (憶蓮·佩姬)

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 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

But I was ever so much younger then

Much younger then

Now at least 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

I know him so well

It took time to understand him

I know him so well
