Benny Andersson, Tim Rice, and Bjorn Ulvaeus
FLORENCE: 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 FLORENCE: SVETLANA: Wasn't it good? Oh so good Wasn't he fine? Oh so fine Isn't it madness He can't be mine? 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. SVETLANA: 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. FLORENCE: SVETLANA: Looking back I could Looking back I could Have played things Have played it Some other way Differently Learned about the man Before I fell I was just a little Careless maybe But I was Ever so much I was so much younger then Younger then Now at least BOTH: I know I know him well SVETLANA: FLORENCE: Wasn't it good? Oh so good Wasn't he fine? Oh so fine Isn't it madness BOTH: He won't be mine? Didn't I know How it would go? If I knew from the start Why am I falling apart? FLORENCE: SVETLANA: Wasn't it good? Wasn't he fine? Isn't it madness He won't be mine? 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 BOTH: I know him so well
