  • Changing her colours she's off to the shore
    She rides the soul train and he fight the law
    There's a power in his voice and it makes her feel so sure
    So live and live in love
    One day he'll build a statue with his hands
    So gentle when he tries to understand
    This subterfuge he never really planned

    Now you're living in the lifeline
    We're moving
    In the lifeline
    We're walking
    In the lifeline
    We're throwing
    So live and let live in love

    Exchanging their letters their exits begun
    With deathless precision he's aiming his gun
    A democracy of sorts that justifies the sun
    So live and let live in love
    Neither has the ghost of a chance
    Those decisions only can be made once
    You never really know just what you're giving
    Till you're living in the lifeline
    We're moving
    In the lifeline
    We're walking
    In the lifeline
    We're throwing
    So live and let live in love

    Ooh, he could have built a statue with his hands
    So gentle when he tries to understand
    You never really know just what you're giving

    Now you're living in the lifeline
    We're moving
    In the lifeline
    We're walking
    In the lifeline
    We're throwing to you
    But I'm not living

    So live and let live in love
    Lifeline
    In the lifeline
    In the lifeline
    So live and let live in love
    Lifeline
    In the lifeline
    In the lifeline Writer/s: JEFF PARIS, MOON CALHOUN
