I Know Him So Well Lyrics
[Verse 1: Whitney Houston]
Nothing is so good, it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
From wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back, I could have done 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
[Chorus: Whitney Houston & (Cissy Houston), Both]
Wasn’t it good? (Wasn’t it good?)
Wasn’t it fine? (Wasn’t it fine?)
Isn’t it madness he can’t be mine?
But in the end
He needs a little bit more than before
Security (He needs his fantasy and freedom)
I know him so well
[Verse 2: Cissy Houston & (Whitney Houston)]
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 (Looking back)
I could have played it differently (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

[Chorus: Cissy Houston & (Whitney Houston), Both]
Wasn’t it good? (Oh, so good)
Wasn’t it fine? (So fine)
Isn’t it madness he can’t be mine?
[Bridge: Cissy Houston & Whitney Houston]
Didn’t I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
[Chorus: Cissy Houston & Whitney Houston, Both]
Wasn’t it fine (Oh, wasn’t it fine?)
Isn’t it madness he can’t be mine?
But in the end, he needs a little more than before
Security
He needs his fantasy and freedom (I know him so well)
[Outro: Cissy Houston & Whitney Houston]
It took some to understand him
Hoo-ooh
I know him so well
