You carried me, home in your arms
You loved me so much, and you kept me from harm
You washed me and fed me, the years how they flew
And now you need my help, and I’ll care for you!
Cho: There’s a lifeline that ties me to you
Life rolls like a wheel through whatever we do
Through all of the hard times and anger we feel
The love that we have, well it helps us to heal,
Love’s a lifeline that pulls us all through!
You’ve no where to go, and you don’t like to lean
At the old people’s home, they’re packed in
like sardines,
So the baby can sleep in the crib one more year
Put the kids in together, there’s room for you here!
Cho: There’s a lifeline that ties me to you
Overnight power runs out the holes in our shoes
When the looking glass flips, there’s no wrong
or right
Do the best we can and hold hands in the fight
Love’s a lifeline that pulls us all through!
Instrumental
Most of the time now, you’re clear as a bell
But the body you’re using’s not working so well
And I know we get crazy when our patience is gone
Hey, ain’t it amazing, how we hold on,
Cho: To that lifeline that ties me to you
Life rolls like a wheel through whatever we do
Through all of the hard times and anger we feel
The love that we have, well it helps us to heal
Love’s a lifeline that pulls us all through!
Love’s a lifeline that pulls us all,
Through!
