Are You Old Enough

(album: O Zambezi - 1978)

Ten years in the jailer's eye
An' I'm thinking 'bout my baby
Looking at my life go by
Falling in the streets of Rome
An' I'm laughing at the poor man
Talking to the blind man

See the lady in the street car lights
Colour a la Toulouse
Television and red, red wine
So won't you tell me
Won't you tell me the truth

Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough, ooh ooh
Are you old enough for love

Time goes and here we stand
Laughing at the side show
Sinking in the quicksand
The other side of another world
Scratch my back, golden coloured girls
Yeah, oh yeah

I just wanted to kiss someone
I got the moondog blues
You just happened to be standing there
So won't you tell me
Won't you tell me the truth

Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough
Are you old enough, ooh ooh
Are you old enough for love

See the lady in the street car lights
Colour a la Toulouse
Television and red red wine
So won't you tell me
Won't you tell me the truth

Are you old enough (ten years in the jailer's eye)
Are you old enough (and I'm thinking 'bout my baby, looking at my life go by)
Are you old enough, ooh ooh
Are you old enough
Are you old enough (ten years in the jailer's eye, and I'm thinking 'bout my baby)
Are you old enough (looking at my life go by)

Ten years in the jailer's eye
An' I'm thinking 'bout my baby
Looking at my life go by
(Ten years in the jailer's eye)
(An' I'm thinking 'bout my baby)
(Looking at my life go by)
Falling in the streets of Rome
An' I'm laughing at the poor man
Talking to the blind man...
