Split Decision Lyrics by Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood

Live from Madison Square Garden

2009

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
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
Split decision
It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a fine line, a very fine line
It's a fine line
Split decision
It's a fine line, a very fine line
It's a fine line, a very fine line

It's a very fine, a very, very, very fine line
A very fine, a very fine line
It's a very fine line
