lyrics

Lyrics:

Am I in my prime?
Could someone please tell me when it's my time?
Or am I already in decline?
Can I walk a thin line?
Can I walk a thin line?

I knew what you were gonna do before you even thought about.
I knew what you were gonna do before you talked to god about it.
You know less about this topic than I have forgot about it
Now I sold you all these lines. I just have to see if you bought it.

The girl is listening
Should we be whispering?
Or what does she deserve to know to grow?

Am I in my prime?
Could someone please tell me when it's my time?
Or am I already in decline?
Can I walk a thin line?
Can I walk a thin line?
