Lyrics

?Lifeline? words & music by Guy-Michael Grande

You call me when he?s out of town
Ring me up when you are down
Only miss me when he?s not around

Treat me like your lost and found
Call my name when losing ground
Wake me wide with just the slightest sound

I often wonder what it?s for
Our little game, this tug-of-war
Stretched out between us, tide and drifting shore

Cause you?ve stirred feelings far too pure
Hit too deeply to ignore
But I can?t be your lifeline anymore

Try to tell you I?m not fine
Merely wishing you were mine
Knowing that?s not what you want to hear

Now we?ve danced beyond that line
But you can?t be my valentine
And I can?t bear to have you oh so near

I often wonder what it?s for?

Try to see it set this way
No, I can?t come out to play
Though you know I want to
More than ever now

And no matter what I say
It won?t change night back into day
Though I?d try to wrap the sky up for you?
Somehow

You call me when he?s out of town
Ring me up when you are down
Only miss me when he?s not around

Treat me like your lost and found
Call my name when losing ground
Wake me wide with just the slightest sound

I often wonder what it?s for?
