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
