I KNOW HIM SO WELL (Streisand Barbra)

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 One of 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 before She needs 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 Could have played things some other way. Learn about the man before I fell I was just a little careless 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 how it would go? If I knew from the start Why am I falling apart? Wasn't he fine? Isn't it madness He won't be mine? But in the end he needs a little bit more than before She needs security He needs his fantasy and freedom I know him so well It took time to understand me I know him so well.
