One time to know that it's real
One time to know how it feels
That's all
One call - your voice on the phone
One place - a moment alone
That's all
What do you see?
What do you know?
What are the signs?
What do I do?
Just follow your lifelines through
What do you hate?
What do I do?
What do you say?
Don't throw your lifelines away
Don't throw your lifelines away
One time - just once in my life
One time- to know it can happen twice
One shot of a clear blue sky
One look - I see no reasons why you can't
One chance to be back
To the point where everything starts
Once chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
Once I make us believe it's true
What do we see?
Where do we go?
What are the signs?
How do we grow?
By letting your lifelines show
What if we do? What up to now?
What do you say?
How do I know?
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go
One time to know how it feels
That's all
One call - your voice on the phone
One place - a moment alone
That's all
What do you see?
What do you know?
What are the signs?
What do I do?
Just follow your lifelines through
What do you hate?
What do I do?
What do you say?
Don't throw your lifelines away
Don't throw your lifelines away
One time - just once in my life
One time- to know it can happen twice
One shot of a clear blue sky
One look - I see no reasons why you can't
One chance to be back
To the point where everything starts
Once chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
Once I make us believe it's true
What do we see?
Where do we go?
What are the signs?
How do we grow?
By letting your lifelines show
What if we do? What up to now?
What do you say?
How do I know?
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go

Not sure if you based this on a live cut, but the album version has some differently arranged lyrics:
==========
Life is much too short to sit and wonder Who's gonna make the next move And will 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 Your lifeline Your lifeline The lifeline
You say that I misheard you But I think you misspoke I hear you laugh so loudly While I patiently await the joke
I don't want to wait a lifetime Not yours Not mine Can't you see me reaching for the lifeline The lifeline The lifeline Your lifeline Your lifeline
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 Your lifeline The lifeline The lifeline Your lifeline Your life Your life
