I Know Him So Well (feat. Emma Bunton)
Melanie C
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'd move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
Looking back I could have played it differently
(looking back I could have played it some other way)
Learned about the man before I fell
(I was just a little girl)
But I was ever so much younger then
(maybe, 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 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
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well
