Lifeline
Well Im not superstitious
But theres something
Going on inside
Could be friendly, could be vicious
And there isnt any place to hide
Its my imagination
A blessing or a curse
No, I cant ignore it
For better or for worse
It wakes me when Im sleeping
A thief that takes my breath away
And I find myself
Reaching for a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline and
Bring me back in time
I need a lifeline, throw me a lifeline
Im going down for the last time
Sometimes I cant control it
Sometimes it isnt there at all
Sometimes I try to roll it
And wind up staring at the wall
My imagination
I love the games it plays
I get in so deep that I get lost
For days and days
It sometimes leaves me shakin
Standin in the dark alone

Lifelines
One time to know that its real
One time to know how it feels
Thats all
One call - your voice on the phone
One place - a moment alone
Thats all
What do you see?
What do you know?
What are the signs?
What do I do?
Just follow your lifelines through
What do you hate?
What do I do?
What do you say?
Dont throw your lifelines away
Dont throw your lifelines away
One time - just once in my life
One time- to know it can happen twice
One shot of a clear blue sky
One look - I see no reasons why you cant
One chance to be back
To the point where everything starts
Once chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
Once I make us believe its true
What do we see?
Where do we go?
What are the signs?
How do we grow?
By letting your lifelines show
What if we do? what up to now?
What do you say?
How do I know?
Dont let your lifeline go
Dont let your lifeline go
Dont let your lifeline go

Lifeline
I was in some timeless place;
Timeless face; my embrace
Held empty air and empty space,
All on a sunny day.
She lived by the bounding main.
To baltimore, I took a plane.
An east coast lady lit my flame
All on a sunny day.
I was in some dreamless sleep
Where angels watch as lovers leap;
Some of them landed on their feet,
Living the lifeline straight.
She was like the breath of spring
When flowers grow and robins sing,
Keeping me from the pouring rain
All on a summers day.
Theres a lifeline that I know
And it holds me back and lets me go.
Whatever I do, I dont live my lifeline straight.
So it goes as lifetimes pass,
From heart to mind and back again.
My restlessness becomes a flame,
Letting my lifeline show.
She stood by the boundless tide,
Afraid to ride, afraid to hide,
Letting her conscience be her guide,
Needing a lifeline so.
I was in some aimless state
Where lovers meet while angels wait.
With gifts of time, they hesitate
All on a sunny day.
She lived by the bounding main.
From baltimore, I took a train.
An east coast lady lit my flame
All on a summers day.
Theres a lifeline in my soul
And it holds me back and lets me go.
Im in love, so Ive been told,
Letting the lifeline stay.
Ive got a heartline in the air,
And if you listen for me, youll find me there.
Whatever I do, I dont live my lifeline straight.

Lifeline
Changing her colours shes off to the shore
She rides the soul train and he fight the law
Theres a power in his voice and it makes her feel so sure
So live and live in love
One day hell build a statue with his hands
So gentle when he tries to understand
This subterfuge he never really planned
Now youre living in the lifeline
Were moving
In the lifeline
Were walking
In the lifeline
Were throwing
So live and let live in love
Exchanging their letters their exits begun
With deathless precision hes aiming his gun
A democracy of sorts that justifies the sun
So live and let live in love
Neither has the ghost of a chance
Those decisions only can be made once
You never really know just what youre giving
Till youre living in the lifeline
Were moving
In the lifeline
Were walking
In the lifeline
Were throwing
He could have built a statue with his hands
So gentle when he tries to understand
You never really know just what youre giving
Till youre living in the lifeline
Were moving
In the lifeline
Were walking
In the lifeline
Were throwing to you
But Im not living

Are You Coming With Me
Could it be someones telling lies
Or could it be that Im getting wise
Awoke myself from a nose-dive glide
I caught myself but youve lost all pride
Im not going with you
Wont you come on with me ?
See your world in a drift fly past
So good the feeling you want to last
Im not going with you
Would you come on with me ?
Im not here to watch day and night
Or to hear you drift out of life
If I could wake you
A moment I would
Share you my lifeline
Feed you some good
If I could wake you
A moment I would
Share you my lifeline
Feed you some (good)
Im worried for you
But you not for me
When everyones living
I know where youll be
If I should listen to your proposal
Put my future at your disposal
Promise me youll keep yourself clean
Cut yourself from your mid-day dream.
If I could wake you
A moment I would
Share you my lifeline
Feed you some good
If I could wake you
A moment I would
Share you my lifeline and
Feed you some good

Breadline
Aint got no job
Aint got no smoke
Aint got a car
His lifes a joke
Living on the skids
Thinks the worlds just fine
Forgot what he did
Dancing on the breadline
No one there to bind him
Nothing to remind him
Nowhere left to find him
About to lose his lifeline
Hes dancing on the breadline
Forgot who he is
Forgot who he was
Used to call the shots
Now he cant connect the dots
A mover and shaker
Getting closer to his maker
Lower than a hemline
Dancing on the breadline
No one there to bind him
Nothing to remind him
Nowhere left to find him
About to lose his lifeline
Hes looking for a headline
Sniffing up the white lines
Hes dancing on the breadline
Watch him dance
About to lose his lifeline
Hes looking for a headline
Sniffing up the white lines
Hes dancing on the breadline
About to lose his lifeline
Hes dancing on the breadline
No one, nothing, nowhere
Dancing on the breadline
He forgot and he aint got nothing

Things To Come
Washin my brains in the public fountain
Buildin my brains in the shadow of the mountain of glass and steel
Wrap me in your arms again
Ill make you warm again
We can touch the storm again
Tonight tonight tonight
Dont let it break you
Dont let it take you apart
Ill be your lifeline
Ill be your change of heart
Shatter the glass and all the walls between us
Strip your body naked flying dangerous
My love is waiting at the edge of the world
Here we go through the doors again
Here we go round the world
Dont let it scare you
Dont be afraid to start
Ill be your lifeline
Ill be the fire in your heart
Go straight up -- past all numbers -- all numbers
Past god, past mars, past light where there are no numbers
Wrap yourself in a cloak of fire and drive on through
Bathe in the waters of isis hathor
And the light it will amaze you
Just let it take you
Just let it take you away
Ill be your lifeline
Ill be the light of day
Dont let it shake you
Dont let it take you apart
Ill be your lifeline
Ill be your change of heart

You came, you came my way
You brought the sunshine in my life
and now I've got a joy divine
Your love it came and changed my day
And now I'm glad to go you way

Traces
Believe me,
When I tell you
That a love true
Isnt hard to find.
cause I found mine
And shes so fine
Like a lifeline
From across the sea.
None of the neighbors
Remember names,
They only see the faces
With destinations still unnamed.
Its hard to leave the traces
For someone to follow.

One In A Million
Only one girl in a million
Is the one Im searching for
And I know that shell be different
From all Ive known before
I have raised my expectations
I have followed every star
And Ill travel every highway
No matter how near, how far
Where is she
Who will be
The fulfilment of my dreams?
Could it be
Fantasy
That may never come to me?
Spent my lifetime searching for the one
And a lifetimes work is never done
But in aiming for perfection
Other hearts have passed me by
Its a lonely road I travel
By building my hopes so high
Ive been told
Youre so cold,
Wheres the passion, wheres the fire?
Lying in wait
Until fate
Lights the flames of my desire
Spent my lifetime searching for the one
And a lifetimes work is never done
Throw a lifeline if youre close to me
And Ill give you all youll ever need
I spend my lifetime searching for the one
And a lifetimes work is never done
Throw a lifeline if youre close to me
And Ill give you all youll ever need

Its Alright
Its alright forty days of rain
My skin stretched out from the growing pain
Itd be nice to have an explanation
But its alright
And its alright if you hate that way
Hate me cause Im different
You hate me cause Im gay
Truth of the matter come around one day
Its alright
I look at this lifeline stretched way all across my hand
I look at the burned out empty like a plague across the land
And for everything I learn there are two I dont understand
Thats while Im still on a search
Through the weather strewn church
Im doing the best that I can
And its alright
And its alright though we worry and fuss
(alright)
We cant get over the hump or get over us
(we cant get over us)
It seems easier to push than to let go and trust
(alright)
But its alright
When we get a little distant some things get clearer
Yeah give em the space some hearts grow nearer
I ran as hard as I could I still ended up here
And its alright
As I look at this lifeline stretched way all across my hand
(lifeline all across my hand)
I look at the fires of hatred
(fire)
Burning up the bounty of this beautiful land
(burning up the land)
I know that Im small in a way but I know Im strong
And its my thirst that brought me to the water
Well I give it all up then she carries me on
Its alright
Yeah
And its alright if I feel afraid
My plans in pieces
My plans mislaid
Its the will of the way
(the will of the way)
The will of the way
(its the will of the way)
The will of the only way that could have brought me here today
And its alright
And its alright

Drowning
You get that feeling sometimes
no one wants to speak to you
and you begin to wonder
if you have done something wrong,
but you cannot remember what or when.
You feel crushed
and do not know what to do.
You seem lost in the world
among the purple hues.
No one wants to throw you
a lifeline to pull you out
of the feelings you are drowning in.

When Two Worlds Collide
Verse 1
Read my letter
And I pray you understand
Just you let her
Just let her force my hand
Release 1
Be your judge and jury
Are we guilty of lies
When two worlds collide
Chorus
No one lover can last forever
So dont you sever the lifeline
Just two people who do whatever
Dont sever the lifeline
Verse 2
Your two faces
Which one do I know the best
Theres no story you can hide
That stands the test
Release 2
Through the flame and the fury
Will tomorrow survive
When two worlds collide
When two worlds collide
Chorus
Break

Lost
(kenneth gamble / leon huff / jerry butler)
I was a sad and lonely girl
All alone in this big world, baby, (hey, baby) baby
Lost in a state of misery
Not a soul to comfort me, baby (hey, baby)
I couldnt find no help
Didnt know what to do with myself
Oh, I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me
I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
Oh, I was lost
I thank the lord that you
Are the one who came to my rescue, baby, (hey, baby)
Thanks for me and this heart of mine
You came just in time, baby, baby (hey, baby)
I couldnt find my way, ooh
Dont you hear what I say? , yeah
Well I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me
I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yeah
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
Then you threw out your lifeline
Lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yes I was
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
Then you threw out your lifeline
Oh, so lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost (so lost), yeah
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation

Bus Stop
Little black strip, meandering through the valley's and dales;
Cut through the huge mountains and meadows lush green.
Lifeline it is—no romanticism
Serpentine it looks through ariel looks
Serpentine it is those who wait in the early hours
Young and old and of course in the age group of ours
Stare eagerly on either side
Wait eagerly for the real lifeline
And when it comes at last
A wave of human race with their lives at stake
Young one's wriggling through the legs
Experience stands at bay
Unwillingly watching the two generations fight

Rock N Roll Is A Vicious Game
(myles goodwyn)
Published by goody two tunes, inc. - bmi
He rocked his way through yesterday, lord he thought he had a chance
He played guitar and wrote some tunes, of love and romance
He did his share of travelin, like a dog without a home
A fugitive who would rather give, a star that never shone
Isnt it a pity, isnt it a shame
No one ever warned the boy
Rock n roll is a vicious game, oh yeah
He said he wouldnt get led around, or caught up in the games
Or end up in a gallery, of faces with no names
And rock n roll was in his soul, and music was a friend
He recorded a song that made us sing along, and he was on the road again
Isnt it a pity, isnt it a shame
No one ever warned the boy
Rock n roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh yeah, oh oh
Stage fright, ooh, and long black limousines
Hes pushing himself a way too hard, or so it seems
He opened up his heart to us, he gave us what he could
We symphathized and harmonized, he made us all feel good
But its funny how those things can change, and time can pass us by
Songs that moved us so easily, no longer make us cry
Now isnt it a pity, isnt it a shame
No one ever warned the boy
Rock n roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh
Oh yeah, oh, oh oh oh, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
My my my, rock n roll is a vicious game, yeah
Rock n roll, rock n roll, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

Dancing On A High Wire
(colin blunstone - lead vocal)
Were living in a different reality
Were toeing the same line
We give in we call it neutrality,
A joke with no punchline
The silver plated hero
Meets the golden hearted whore
The oddsll give you zero
Shell be leaving in a few days more
Movin on forever, maybe she dont care
Holding on together, maybe it just aint there
Youre dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a lifeline
There isnt anymore
We are the same with no similarity,
We talk at the same time
We believe in freedom and charity
As long as I get mine
The ivory madonna is walking
Through the door
You watch her from a window,
It doesnt matter anymore
Moving on forever, maybe she dont care
Holding on together, maybe it just aint there
Youre dancing on a high wire
You need to be so sure
There used to be a life-line
There isnt anymore

Hold On My Heart
Hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know weve been here before
We both know what can happen
Hold on my heart
Cos Im looking over your shoulder
Ooh please dont rush in this time
Dont show her how you feel
Hold on my heart
Throw me a lifeline
Ill keep a place for you
Somewhere deep inside
So hold on my heart
Please tell her to be patient
Cos there has never been a time
That I wanted something more
If I can recall this feeling
And I know theres a chance
Oh I will be there
Yes I will be there
Be there for you
Whenever you want me to
Whenever you call oh I will be there
Yes I will be there
Hold on my heart
Dont let her see you crying
No matter where I go
Shell always be with me
So hold on my heart
Just hold on to that feeling
We both know weve been here before
We both know what can happen
So hold on my heart...
