I Know Him So Well Lyrics
I know him so well
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
Chorus:
Wasn't it good (Wasn't it good)
Wasn't he fine (Wasn't it fine)
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me
For 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 moved my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide...
Looking back (Looking back), I could've played it differently (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...
Chorus:
Wasn't it good (oh so good)
Wasn't he fine (so 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 (Wasn't it fine)
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me
For security (he needs his fantasy and freedom)
I know him so well....
It took some time to understand him
I know him so well
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
From wanting far too much, for far too long....
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 it good)
Wasn't he fine (Wasn't it fine)
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me
For security (he needs his fantasy and freedom)
I know him so well....
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 (Looking back), I could've played it differently (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 (oh so good)
Wasn't he fine (so 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...
Isn't it madness, he can't be mine
But in the end, he needs a little bit more than me
For security (he needs his fantasy and freedom)
I know him so well....
I know him so well

It took her awhile to figure him out. Yes he is insecure and loves her so much. He needs his space and freedom of expressiveness ( lets say artistically speaking) but she has to TRUST that he is not cheating...she has to let him be and he will always come back to her he is hers. Its not the typical romantic relationship where he has to tell her I love you all the time and give her validation for her to be convinced. But on the other side he does distance himself to rebuilt passion between them and yes to trigger and get some form of validation so its a confirmation that they still got it ..the fire the passion the attention on the relationship...How else is he gonna keep this going and the excitement between them !!! He is giving her the Ultimate Romanticism ! No Boredom !
What a beautiful song! Its soo sad!
