Ben Harper Lifeline Lyrics

Lifeline Lyrics

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)
