Lifeline

Life is too short to wonder

Who's gonna make the next move

And will it slowly pull you under

When you've always got something to prove



I don't want to wait a lifetime

Yours or mine

Yours or mine

Can't you see me reaching for the lifeline

Your lifeline (x4)



You say that I misheard you

But I think you misspoke

I hear you laugh so loudly

while I patiently wait for joke



I don't want to wait a lifetime

Not yours

Not mine

Can't you see me reaching for the lifeline

Your lifeline (x4)



It's a crime with only victims

We're all laid out in a row

And it's hardest to listen

to what we already should know

I could hold out for a lifetime

Yours or mine

Yours and mine

Can't you see me reaching for your lifeline

Your lifeline (x4)
