[Verse 1]
2 AM just back just off the main street
Got a call from a friend of mine
He was crying on the phone like crazy
Said he was only calling me to say goodbye
To the world and the life around him
It hurts like hell I know
But brother I won't let you go (go go)

[Pre-Chorus]
When you're into deep
And your heart goes weak
When you are backed into the corner
And you're struggling in to breathe
When the fear takes hold
And the bruises show
But the punches keep on coming
I'll be there to take the blows

[Chorus]
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
[Verse 2]
Took a cab and I ran to meet you
You were standing on the edge of town
Never thought that you'd walk in my shoes
Walking on the thunderclouds
But don't worry man, hey I've got you
Yeah it hurts like hell I know
But brother I won't let you go

[Pre-Chorus]
When you're into deep
And your heart goes weak
When you are backed into the corner
And you're struggling in to breathe
When the fear takes hold
And the bruises show
But the punches keep on coming
I'll be there to take the blows

[Chorus]
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
[Bridge]
I'll be your lifeline
Through the darkness of the night
Be by your side
I'll be standing by your side
Be your lifeline
Through the darkness of the night
Be by your side
Standing by your side

[Chorus]
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side

[Outro]
I'll be your lifeline
Place your hand in mine
I'll be standing by your side
