Split Decision

Steve Winwood

Sometimes I think he knows too much

His confidence never needs a crutch

One man is a real one, the other wants to hide

One man has his mind made up, the other can't decide

By the time there's nothing left to choose

One man puts the fire out, the other lights the fuse



Sometimes I think I know too much

'Bout what goes on in the real world and such

Half of me is certain, the other isn't sure

One half has the symptom, the other has the cure

By the time there's nothing left to choose

One half has the answer, the other looks for clues



It's a fine line, a very fine line

Split decision

It's a fine line, a very fine line



Sometimes I think we've come too far

If we're lost and if not where we are

Half of us is easy, the other half is hard

Even though we do our best, we end up being scarred

By the time there's nothin' left to choose

One man puts the fire out, the other lights the fuse



It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a fine line, a very fine line

Split decision

It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a fine line, a very fine line

A very fine line



Sometimes I think I know too much

When confidence never needs a crutch

One man is a real one, the other wants to hide

One man has his mind made u while the other can't decide

By the time there's nothing left to choose

One of us sees red, while the other sings the blues



It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a fine line, a very fine line

Split decision

It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a fine line, a very fine line

A very fine line
