About this episode
The ball is no longer in your court you can’t pick out anything of any sort You can’t even wait too long Because you have no choice but to come along Let’s try to get to the bottom line And finish things in less than no time Even if you would have to drag your feet And endure the consequences and take the heat I think maybe I should say it straight All I’m thinking about is my fate All I want is for you to take a hike Because I assure you, we look nothing alike Trust me it will be no sweat And I’ll pay you all the debt And we’ll both forget when and where we met I know that you have heard that line A million or maybe a billion times But this time you can lay-back go back and remember all that you lack. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
