THE DESERT ROSE BAND
"Throw Me A Lifeline"
(Hill-Hillman)

Long ago, far away
How could we have known it would be this way
We drifted so far, so far away
From where it all began, when will it ever end
And now we pray...

Dear God, I say don't leave me here alone
I just don't know how to make it on my own
For such a long time I felt this old river roll
Throw me a lifeline, throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline, pull me back to shore

I can't control where that river flows
From her heart to mine, she's all I know
And letting go it feels so cold
A chill runs through my veins, will it ever be the same
Hear this cry in my soul

Dear God, I say don't leave me here alone
I just don't know how to make it on my own
For such a long time I felt this old river roll
Throw me a lifeline, throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline, pull me back to shore
Throw me a lifeline, pull me back to shore
