I Know Him So Well Lyrics by Steps

Platinum Collection

2001

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
(Looking back)
I could have played it differently
(I could have played it some other way)
Won a few moments who can tell
(I was just a little careless, maybe)
But I was ever so much younger then
(I was 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?
(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?
(So 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
