Lifeline

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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, mm-hmm, mm-mm
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Save me
Now I've been praying
To a god I've never known
I can't do this on my own
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, my lifeline
Don't you know, you're my lifeline
