Life is too short to wonder
Who´s gonna make the next move
And will it 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
Your lifeline (x4)

You say that I misheard you
But I think you misspoke
I hear you laugh so loudly
while I patiently wait for joke

I don´t want to wait a lifetime
Not yours
Not mine
Can´t you see me reaching for the lifeline
Your lifeline (x4)

It´s a crime with only victims
We´re all laid out in a row
And it´s hardest to listen
to what we already should know
I could hold out for a lifetime
Yours or mine
Yours and mine
Can´t you see me reaching for your lifeline
Your lifeline (x4)
