Life is much too short to sit and wonder Who's gonna make the next move and will 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? You say that I misheard you but I think you misspoke I hear you laugh so loudly while I patiently await the joke I don't want to wait a lifetime Yours or mine, yours or mine Can't you see me reaching for the lifeline? The lifeline, the lifeline It's a crime with only victims We're all laid out in a row It's hardest to listen to what we already should know I could hold out for a lifetime Yours or mine, yours or mine Can't you see me reaching for your lifeline? The lifeline, your lifeline, the lifeline
