Christopher Cross - I Know You Well



A good fight half won
A good scotch half gone
And I`ll never win Mr. Congeniality
I bs`d once again
She acquiesced
And I got off on a technicality

I`ve always loved our little wars
Treaties we sign behind closed doors
I may concede but I will not bleed
I will not bleed

The James Dean the prom queen
Impractical fascination
Having its way again
She knows Astaire`s got nothing on me
When I take her out tonight
When I take her out tonight

I`ve always loved the way you dance
How you defy our circumstance
There may not be more than I see
More than I see
C`est la vie

I know you well (you know me well)
I know you well (you know me well)
I know you well boy
And before the dawn comes you`ll be gone

It`s symbiotic
It`s a sweet narcotic
Not a futile search for romantic perfection
That`s too much trouble
So make mine a double
My head`s a very scary neighborhood
Don`t wanna walk it alone

Thought I had something more to say
Before you kissed my neck that way
I`ll let it be
That works for me
So c`est la vie
C`est la vie

I know you well (you know me well)
I know you well (you know me well)
I know you well boy
And before the dawn comes you`ll be gone

You know me well (I know you well)
You know me well (I know you well)
I know you well girl
And tomorrow we might just move on
