I Know Him So Well (Session Outake) - Barbra Streisand

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 me

More 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 me

More 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.
