Elaine Paige & Barbara Dickson - I Know Him So Well 1985 (from the musical 'Chess' by by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus/ABBA) 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 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 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 It took time to understand him. I know him so well.
