Lifeline

Doc said I got twelve hours

I called you without a second thought

Plane ride within the hour

As she pictures life without her son

Oh, oh, I know

One hour visitation

She beats me in chess, another round

Don't matter what we're saying

I'm just glad you made it into town

Oh, oh

Save me, now I'm facing

All my fears of the unknown

I've been shakin' in my bones

Lately, I've been praying

To a God I've never known

I can't do this on my own

So try not to cry

I won't say goodbye just yet

So hold on to my hand

Oh, I'll be fine for tonight

With you by my side, oh my

But don't you know, you're my lifeline

I know I'm not good at calling

Dad said I've fallen off the grid

We hardly say I love you

'Cause your parent's parents never did

Oh, oh, ooh

Save me, now I'm facing

All my fears of the unknown

I've been shakin' in my bones

Lately, I've been praying

To a God I've never known

I can't do this on my own

Try not to cry

I won't say goodbye just yet

So hold on to my hand

Oh, I'll be fine for tonight

With you by my side, oh my

But don't you know, you're my lifeline

So let go 'cause I won't waste another minute

This distance, we're drifting from difference of opinion

I can't be mad I'm not what you prayed for

I hope you know that no one else could ever

Save me

Now I've been praying

To a God I've never known

I can't do this on my own

Try not to cry

I won't say goodbye just yet

So hold on to my hand

Oh, I'll be fine for tonight

With you by my side, oh

Don't you know, you're my lifeline

Ooh, ooh, my lifeline

Don't you know, you're my lifeline
