This song is one of my favourites. Me and my colleague in Davao used to sing this song in duet and we would feel like stars of the night. Singing karaoke on parties is one of the things I miss so much. My former colleagues and I would always have fun and we felt like we’re one big family.

I Know Him So Well
~Barbara 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 him
I know him so well
