Joanna Ampil I Know Him So Well (From Chess) lyrics

Nothing is so good it lasts eternallyPerfect situations must go wrongBut this has never yet prevented meFrom wanting far too much for far too longLooking back I could have played it differentlyWon a few more moments, who can tell?But it took time to understand the manNow at least I know I know him wellWasn't it good? (Oh so good)Wasn't he fine? (Oh so fine)Isn't it madness he won't be mineBut in the end he needs a little bitMore than me, more security (He needs his fantasy and freedom)I know him so wellNo one in your life is with you constantlyNo one is completely on your sideAnd though I move my world to be with himStill the gap between us is too wideLooking back I could have played it differently (Looking back I could have played things some other way)Learned about the man before I fell (I was just a little careless, maybe)But I was ever so much younger thenNow at least I know I know him wellWasn't it good? (Oh so good)Wasn't he fine? (Oh so fine)Isn't it madnessHe won't be mine?Didn't I knowHow it would goIf I knew from the startWhy am I falling apart?Wasn't it goodWasn't he fineIsn't it madnessHe won't be mine?But in the end he needs a little bitMore than me, more security (He needs his fantasy and freedom)I know him so wellIt took time to understand himI know him so well
