I know him so well

Abba

Nothing is so good it last eternally,
Perfect situations must go wrong,
But this have never yet prevented me,
Wanting far to 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 men,
Now at least I know,
I know him well

Wasn't it good,
Wasn't he fine,
Isn't madness he can't be mine,
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me,
More security,
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 differently,
Won a few more moments who can tell,
But I was ever so much younger then,
Now at least I know,
I know him well.

Wasn't it good,
Wasn't he fine,
Isn't madness he can't be mine,
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me,
More security,
I know him so well

Nothing is so good it last eternally,
Perfect situations must go wrong,
But this have never yet prevented me,
Wanting far to 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 men,
Now at least I know,
I know him well

Wasn't it good,
Wasn't he fine,
Isn't 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 good,
Wasn't he fine,
He won't be mine,
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me,
More, security,
I know him so well
He needs his fantasy and freedom,
I know him so well.
